CYGNUS (GEN 1~5) Sliding Sheave Set

Stable backshift, smoother drive, cooler belt temps.

This Sliding Sheave Set (movable + fixed sheave) for Yamaha CYGNUS Gen 1–5 refines the CVT’s shift curve and backshift response. Helical cam tracks guide the sheave movement for predictable ratio changes, while a clean contact surface supports belt grip and heat control. Built to match OEM interfaces for straightforward installation and consistent alignment.

Highlights
🔹 Predictable Shift Curve — Helical cam profile supports smooth upshift and timely backshift.
🔹 Stable Belt Tracking — Face geometry helps reduce slip and glazing under repeated stops/starts.
🔹 Concentric, True Running — Machined hubs and bores promote straight, low-friction travel.
🔹 Cooling Support — Broad face area and finish aid heat dissipation to protect belt life.
🔹 Tuning Friendly — Works with common contra springs and belts to target RPM and engine load.
