Malossi Torque Drive Converter – more direct acceleration & optimized performance for Piaggio VX 125 / 180ccm

Unlike tuning converters, the original converter has a rather curved profile/slot and therefore often causes a slight lack of initial acceleration. Additionally, when reapplying throttle, the RPM usually does not increase as abruptly.

The Malossi Torque Drive addresses this: with linear, optimized slopes, it is designed for best acceleration and top speed. The workmanship is typical Malossi – very high quality and manufactured from high-grade nitrided steel. Its use is particularly recommended for heavily tuned engines.

The Malossi Multivar variator fits perfectly as a supplement.

Note: After installing this converter, the variator must be re-tuned (weights, and if necessary, contrast spring).

Advantages & Features

• Linear, optimized slopes for strong acceleration and high top speed
• Reduces typical initial acceleration weakness of the original converter
• When reapplying throttle: RPM build-up can be more direct
• High-grade nitrided steel for high load capacity
• Recommended for heavily tuned setups
• Ideal combination: Malossi Multivar

Compatibility (Excerpt)

Fits many vehicles with Piaggio engines, e.g., Piaggio (among others MP3 125, Zip 125/Zip II 125, Beverly 125), Vespa (among others GTS 125, GTV 125, LX 125/LX 150), Aprilia (among others SR Max 125, Sportcity 125, Atlantic 125) – as well as numerous other models from Benelli, Derbi, Gilera, Italjet, Malaguti and more.

If you drive a Piaggio MP3 125, a Vespa GTS 125 or an Aprilia SR Max 125, this Malossi Torque Drive is a very strong basis for a cleanly tuned variomatic setup.
