Like owners have to get a little creative sometimes ha. I'm curious what Kymco's official take is on variator nut removal. I just took a look at Cyclepedia's service manual and all they say is "use special holder tool" no details, no picture!
Currently:
2012 Kymco Like70
72cc Malossi BBK
Dell'Orto PHBG 19 AS Carb
52 Pilot Jet
92 Main Jet
W7 Needle, 40 Slide
2T atomizer + bushing
Tecnigas NextR Exhaust
TinyTach in Headset
2011 Kymco Like50 (stolen -> recovered)
PM's OK!

I see now....no fins!
Maybe one of those Bizetti tools used on Vespas. 3 or 4 teeth fit into the variator's teeth. Tool is bolted into two nearby belt cover bolt holes.
A shop specializing in 50's would have something.

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.
