I adjusted my belt, according to some pretty good info I got from Lafayette here.
But I have a question

I'm supposed to adjust belt so there is no play at its longest point, but how tight is tight?
Should I feel a hard/tight spot when I manually swing swingarm through it's arc?

I also keep reading belt should be able to touch swingarm when correctly adjusted, is that true or exaggeration?

Thanks

Lafayette thanks for all the info, yet again.: )
I believe you've got enough info to put a book together.
