These cars are still very expensive as are the parts in the UK so when they do come up for parts they are generally quite expensive,coachgeo wrote:Can you pull the part numbers off the Aixam drive and driven pulley? Wanting to compare and see (if these are made by CVTech like folk assume, which model they are. Do you have a source for these? Model number for Axiams of other Micro cars that used this set up would be helpfull too.
The Aixam is the only one which uses the Kubota diesel engine.
Microcar used to use the Lombardini diesel but this was dropped in favour of a petrol version therefore the only transmission suitable for diesel bikes is from an Aixam.
My CVT was made in Canada but without taking the bike apart I can't confirm the numbers and I believe it came from an early Aixam.
I would suggest if you want more info you look at the aixam and microcar group on yahoo groups.
It's a UK group and plenty of info can be had there as most owners do their own maintenance.
