belt q's

if u have read any of my other posts ...my belt snapped and ruined my crank so i had to take the electric start out and put the variotor further back this means te variatori isnt 100% in line with the clutch


so i fitted the belt and it seems to be ok but it there is a little piece of string on the side of the belt and you can see it coming off is this normal ... i never actually watched a new belt running so wouldnt know what it does it is totally brand new and is a malossi kevlar x belt

 

I dont thinkk so mate,

 

No its not normal it will wear unevenly and perform badly if the variator and clutch aren't in line

 

Nah once it goes like that itll snap in a few days. My polini kevlar one on my rox did

 

Yeah if its a brand new belt and threads are coming off so soon I wouldn't expect it to last long at all

 

wont ride it then just wait for new rebuild ..thread is all still on it has been run for about 40 seconds on the stand

 

If its just a bit far back you could just put a couple of washers on if you knew the right position

 

cba risking another belt ..i will just wait and do it all properly
