Title: drive belt ? Post by 223fan on 12/01/12 at 13:02:06 I noticed yesterday that when my bike is not running I can move the belt front to back some(maybe a 1/4").I'm just wondering if this is normal or do i need to check this out.My bike is a 2012 model with 6000 miles on it.Yep sure do like to ride it.Thanks |

Title: Re: drive belt ? Post by 223fan on 12/01/12 at 14:09:21 Yea I guess that would have been a better way for me to sayit.Both sprokets move though.I've never had a belt driven bike before,so I have nothing to compare it to. |

Title: Re: drive belt ? Post by 223fan on 12/01/12 at 14:43:56 Serowbot you answered my question about the side to side play on the rear.Probably just paranoid. |

I do not know on Aida's Savage, but on My Marauder, I have no visible slop in the cush drive. Nor on any other bike I have owned. (I guess I need to spend more time wrenching on her bike...) For those that need a visual, they look like this. http://www.cincinnatisuperbikes.com/Suzuki-Heavy-Duty-Cush-Drive-Sets-p/cush.htm |
