reading the manual on belt adjustment. in short says no weight on rear of bike then 1.5-1.75" of up movement on belt . my bike is lowered 2" or better. i just replaced rear tire and the belt moves up 1" and hits lower part of swingarm. does anyone have idea on another way to check? i am just putting the bike together from a blown engine and built the lowering bracket so rear wheel isnt in the same place as before. | ||

A lot of info on this subject. Prevailing opinion is factory belt specs leave the belt too tight. "Crazy loose" is a term thrown around here, as far a how you need it to be. With you sitting on the bike, the belt should almost be able to touch the swingarm. This is all by foggy memory so if anyone can give better details please feel free.............. |
