| I clocked a SW outside work today, a 2014 model and I noticed this circular impression on the drive cover. My 2001 SW doesn't have this.....what is it? Does it have a purpose?  |

| That's the variable varinator adjustment knob. Turn it counter clockwise for more top speed clockwise for better acceleration. Or just a little more bling.  |

| Interesting. Can you explain how it works? Can it be adjusted without removing the drive covers? I notice that the parts catalogue doesn't show this on the cover, or the parts which make it work. I'm intrigued  |

| This from the parts list for a 2010 FJS600 Silverwing GT shows that type of belt case cover.  |
