Abstract

Currently, many people use motorcycles with automatic transmissions. At first automatic transmission motorcycles were only used for women because this type of motorcycle was also very easy to operate and easy to control in all motorcycle variants (Wibowo, Ranto, & MW, 2007). Actually, the difference between automatic motorcycles and other types is only in the transmission system. The transmission system on automatic motorcycles is part of a difference called CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). In the CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) system, the engine performance is getting heavier. And the efficacy of the engine is on the engine power which is not much compared to the class of all motorcycles (Sandy Adam Mahaputra, 2011). The definition in this study is to overcome the weakness of engine performance in the CVT system that many customers complain about. This research study is focused on comparing vehicle acceleration with engine traction power between modified driver pulleys and standard driver pulleys using a dyno performance test tool (dynamometer).
