Variator 490560VAL by J.Costa

The J.COSTA variator is designed to equip the YAMAHA TMAX 560, machined from solid material and mounted on self-lubricating bronze bushings. It optimises the engine torque utilisation and reduces power losses for a smoother ride. The ceramic-treated pulley enhances belt friction and extends the service life of moving components.

Design and materials

• Machined from solid material and precision-engineered to ensure consistent fitting to original geometries
• Mounted on self-lubricating bronze bushings to reduce friction and limit frequent maintenance
• Pulley with ceramic treatment for improved belt friction and increased durability

Usage and performance

• Limitation of power losses to retain the engine's available energy during real-world use
• Utilisation of power and torque over a wider range for more consistent acceleration
• Significant improvement in riding comfort for smoother and less demanding journeys

Practicality and features

• Bench tests, circuit, and open road trials to validate product performance under real conditions
• Installation required according to the provided assembly instructions to ensure proper fitting
• Tightening of moving parts and casings should be done to the torque specifications recommended by the manufacturer using a torque wrench, without pneumatic tools

Advantages

• Design based on the use of high-tech materials and processes to enhance component strength
• OEM reference IT560VAL
