Hello all,

I have an email in to Kevin at KDFab but was looking to you folks to see if anyone has any other insight to offer. Has anyone removed the rear 2 band clamps without removing the idler pulley/tensioner? If so do you also have any tips on putting it back together so it is easier to get to those nuts on the clamps? Any advice or direction would be greatly appreciated.

Joe

I think? that I just used a 6" extension, it's been a while but I don't think you need to take off the idler. I used to run a Drummer. Stock is the same too as far a accessing those clamps.

It makes life lots easier next time if you do
turn the clamps around so you can get at them as you suggest. I turn them around so you get at them from the left side of the bike.

Easiest way is to use a 1/4 inch drive, 11mm deep socket and 6" extension. Place the clamps and nuts on top and the extension will slide in between the belt and idler no problem.
