Author Message   Charlie_zulu Posted on Friday, July 06, 2007 - 08:38 pm:        Has anyone here experienced the drive belt on the rear pulley walking? I noticed a few days ago after a ride that the drive belt seemed to be tracking to the right. Nothing so serious that its about to come off but its not against the backstop of the rear pulley either. What causes this and should I be concerned? Thanks   Gamdh Posted on Friday, July 06, 2007 - 08:45 pm:        Mine does the same thing...been that way since the first tire change. So far it has not hurt anything...   Bake Posted on Friday, July 06, 2007 - 11:31 pm:        Some guys who have fallen over or crashed have found the swingarm pivot has bent causing the rear pulley to be out of line.   Lorazepam Posted on Friday, July 06, 2007 - 11:44 pm:        "they all do that" heh.   Paochow Posted on Saturday, July 07, 2007 - 10:28 am:        Mine was walking out due to a fine compaction of sand/silt near the inside of the rear pulley. I ended up blowing it out with some compressed air. Tracks nice and true now.   Bearly Posted on Monday, July 09, 2007 - 09:38 am:        My belt is flush with the outside edge of the rear pulley with a small gap between the inside flange and the belt.
