| The "soot" may actually be the belt case filter that disintegrated.

| Last time I serviced the bike, me and my mechanic noticed a wobble on the variator as well. I am currently waiting for some spare parts to "reset" my transmission and some of those spare parts include drive face and it boss so will let you know if that solves it but it does not seem to affect anything so far! Will keep you updated! Cheers |
