Description
3-shoe clutch Polini Speed Clutch 3G
The Polini Speed Clutch 3G is a performance clutch for scooters with Minarelli engines. This version fits models from 1998 onward, using three-shoe clutches and 107mm clutch bells.
Note: Minarelli engines changed clutch types after 1998. Check the clutch bell inner diameter (107mm) to ensure compatibility.
Blocking tools for installing and removing the clutch are available in our store. And of course the matching 107mm clutch bell (Minarelli) or 107mm clutch bell (Piaggio, Peugeot, GY6 etc.).
Features Polini Speed Clutch 3G
The clutch is robust and solid, with 3 large, heat-resistant linings for excellent grip. By installing stiffer springs, the engagement point of the clutch can be adjusted to improve acceleration. This allows the engine to reach higher RPMs before engaging the transmission, which is especially helpful for uphill starts, stop-and-go, or riding with a passenger.

As the name suggests, the For Race clutch is designed for the most powerful racing engines.
Scooter clutch
The clutch is essential for the smooth operation of the scooter's automatic CVT. It ensures that the engine power is transmitted to the rear wheel in a continuous and controlled manner.
How Does a scooter clutch work?
The clutch and clutch bell of the centrifugal clutch on scooters form a single unit. The clutch bell is attached to the input shaft of the engine. When the engine reaches a certain speed, the clutch shoes with linings are pulled outward by centrifugal force. Clutch and bell come into contact, they engage so power can be transmitted from the engine to the rear wheel.
How to adjust a Scooter clutch?
Scooters are centrifugal clutches, with increasing RPMs the centrifugal force leads to clutch engagement. The clutch springs play an important role in this process as they affect the engine speed at which the clutch engages, i.e. makes contact with the bell.
The clutch engages at a lower engine speed with soft springs, while hard springs delay clutch engagement. It is important to find the optimum compromise in terms of setup and intended use.
More precise settings can be done with an adjustable clutch, where the tension of the clutch springs can be adjusted.
We carry a wide range of special tools for hassle-free assembly and disassembly of clutch and transmission parts.
