OK. Saturday my drive belt snapped, (XB9R) I'm going through the gears, nothing works, then I look at my rear pulley and I see shiny teeth. Is this an easy fix or a pain in the ass? I have the belt. I have tools.
Comments?

Thanks

Clams

Careful with that belt.
03s don't care to be mistreated!
Take care not to try any short cuts and do it by the book.
Not really a pain, but it is a little bit time consuming.

When I was converting to chain. I found the most aggravating part was having removing the covers just to get the belt off. That was a PITA for me.

Also, Glitch is right. You have to be super extra careful with the 03 belt.

This will help with what we mean by "handle with care"
