I looked at all the teeth on the belt all look good, but it sqeaks like it's too tight. I don't have the tool, they want in the clymer manual, is there another way to adjust or what should i be looking for. if it was a chain, i would say it's okay, about 1/2 play. but it sounds tight when i push it. oh. and what the hell are "sticky's"
Sounds like too much pressure in the tire to me, but you know what it needs I guess..
Belt adjust is some voodoo & some art & some science.. many ideas here.
IDK what a sticky is..
Only stickies I know about are the thread permanently parked at the top of each section...
Back on topic, I had mine up to around 90, with some twist left in the throttle. That was pretty much bone stock, just a HD muffler, and a turn or so out on the carb. She'd have gone faster, but I lost my nerve!
