People 250 / Re: Loose spline on immovable variator.

I meant that the spline was already loose when I removed it when I took the very tight nut off. 
I found that the spline was loose when I put it back on after replacing the belt and rollers.  Sorry for the confusion.
I think I'll just replace the pulley half when I'm in there next or if any new vibrations start.

The pulley was loose on the spline BEFORE I tightened the nut.  It's now tight, but there's a good chance it's working slowly and wearing more.  The pulley is aluminum and the crankshaft is steel.  The pulley appears to be designed to be a 'sacrificial' part during wear.

It's the purple side and it's loose on the spline.  I'll replace it next time I'm in there for service.

Sure, it's the part with the fan blades that is loose on the crankshaft spline.
Thanks!

People 250 / Loose spline on immovable variator.

New guy here.  I've just completed the following service on my '06 People 250 with 13k Km's (I love this scoot'!).
Replaced engine and gearbox oil, valve adjustment (intake loose, exhaust tight), replaced drive belt & rollers, fuel and air filters, Iridium spark plug and brake fluid.
I noticed the spline on the immovable side of the variator was quite loose.  Is this normal?  Maybe this is one of the vibrations I feel at certain RPM's?  Is this a 'consumable' item that should be replaced at regular intervals?
While the scoot' was apart I installed a Trailtech Vapor gauge so I can more accurately read the temperature and speed and ended up with a tachometer and ambient temperature read out as well.  Really nice and easy to read.
Thanks!
