Author Message   Hodakaguy Posted on Sunday, April 03, 2005 - 09:56 am:        Whats the consensus on belt tension. I've read several posts about the factory recommended belt tension being to tight. What are you running your belts at? I have about 2" slack on the bottom of the belt now with me sitting on the bike. (97 S1) Thanks in advance. Hodakaguy.   Azbueller Posted on Sunday, April 03, 2005 - 10:52 am:        You want about 1" travel when sitting on the bike, I've been running that since 98 after having my fifth gear main shaft replaced cause the dealer/factory spec was way to tight!!!   Spiderman Posted on Sunday, April 03, 2005 - 11:26 am:        I run in between 1 an 2 inches, no problem in 3 years!   Blake Posted on Monday, April 04, 2005 - 01:30 am:        Two inches one-way free play with the suspension fully extended is what I aim for.
