    my speedfight is having trouble turning over. The belt is stupidly tight, it used to be fine until i replaced the front pulley :glare: anyone know how to loosen the belt maybe? :lol: or what i could do to stop the belt being so tight? Really annoying. Thanks for any help

    is your clutch working, you should be able to pull belt into clutch while fitting it ,sounds like your contra
    spring might to soft, or the torque driver under contra spring is stuck take clutch apart and pull it apart grease the torque driver pins and shaft

    yer you cant adjust the belt
    try stripping it down and rebuilding it

    you may find you put a washer in the wrong place or something simple
