Author Message   Buellrobot Posted on Friday, June 24, 2011 - 12:02 pm:        20 second video: http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=oh3g5c&s=7 Not sure how much play it should have while on sidestand w/o a rider. What do folks think?   Buellistic Posted on Friday, June 24, 2011 - 12:33 pm:        BUELLrobot: With the BELT ADJUSTMENT Class 101, when you get the belt adjusted on the TIGHT SPOT measure it on the side stand ... Let me know !!! "i" never measured mine being only interested in getting as perfect as possible when setting it up ...

Once I'm able to do the 101, I'll measure and report back   Hellraged Posted on Friday, June 24, 2011 - 10:01 pm:        man if yall say yours is looser than that... mine must have been WAY too TIGHT could hardly move mine up and down.. no wonder why my front pulley stripped... after i put on my new one ill loosen my belt up real good   Jramsey Posted on Friday, June 24, 2011 - 10:20 pm:        "What do folks think?"

It works and will let you set your belt with minimum excess slack but will ensure that it will never be too tight. That eliminates the second guessing and you will know for sure that it is right.   Xl1200r Posted on Sunday, June 26, 2011 - 12:40 am:        I think mine is looser than that, but I feel like it skips a tooth when starting from a stop once in a while, so I may give each adjuster a couple turns and check it based on Lafayette's instructions.   Foximus Posted on Sunday, June 26, 2011 - 10:59 pm:        haha you can almost peel my belt off without pulling the wheel in. Dont sweat it. Besides, the more you roll the throttle the tighter the belt is pulled against the drum. Only reason to have it tight is if you have a properly fitted tension roller.   01x1buell Posted on Monday, June 27, 2011 - 04:42 pm:        my belt was scary loose,then i went on a 400 mile ride and now it is just loose not scary loose.. what is that about.. the adjusters are still in the same place????
