Or you can buy variators and clutches with different ramps for different ratios.



GY6 150 Rear Torque Plates

It isn't as easy as changing a sprocket on a motorcycle and adjusting the chain but you can change overall gearing on a scooter with a CVT.
The regearing is rather engineering intensive and likely would not be available for many models, so don’t count on it being available. I just looked for a Honda metropolitan, and i found a modified variator, but they didn’t say how much it can change the gearing. That is good to know that some models do have aftermarket gears available though.
