Hey, I'm looking for a thread in the KV on R&R my belt on an '00 S3. I swear I must be brain-dead, can't find the do-it-yourself procedure anywhere. It'd be great if someone posted a link for me, but it would be even better if I could just fugure out how to use the KV. Rob | ||

I think the KV generally offers advice and opinions on problems and variations of procedures that are described in the service manual. I don't think it you'll find a step-by-step for most things there. However, there is a full manual for an S1 and I think that the procedure is more or less the same as for an S3. For that, just look at the list of headings under "s". | ||

I've got a manual but don't have a "spreader" for replacing the belt w/out taking the swingarm off. I had hoped there would be an alternative methode and thought I had read somewhere there was. Guess I'm wrong. Rob | ||

REK -- American Thunder Bike has a great procedure for belt R&R -- it involves dropping the swingarm and block, but it's pertty simply to do, and possible to do solo (though I buddy would sure come in handy for install) -- other than the big honkin TORX/Allen (depending on the vintage of your swingarm iso bolts) and an inpact driver (for removing same), nothing out of the ordinary is required | ||

You can always remove the frame assembly from the engine/swingarm assembly. Last time I did it was only 4 hrs and of course OZ helped. |
