no I mean you need two ears on each post. 4 ears total. you don't want the ramp plate to rotate backwards. Early variators had only 2 ears total, those wont work with the roller guide.
that is a stock av7/av10 variator, they are the same (well, av10 variator because of the thinner fixed sheave. but late model av7 motobecane came with this too.) Stock sheaves and stock hub bolted to a flange on the front with the crank taper. sold by bidalot around 1985 and came with different size balls 12.5-13mm and washer to keep the smaller weights from falling out.
same idea as the second picture.
no clutch function. with the right weights and reverse launch lever you don't need it. but this stuff was for the track anyway before people started putting peugeot variators on mbk, and the good aftermarket mbk variators are basically peugeot variators without a clucth
