Belt adjustment checking tool (Read 93 times)

B.J. and Jo Junior Member Offline Posts: 59 Colorado Springs, CO.	Belt adjustment checking tool 04/06/13 at 12:22:49 When we bought our 2009 S40 from the PO, she didn't have the "tool kit. After seeing what's in the tool kit I made up one of my own BUT, can I order the little tool to check the rear drive belt from Suzuki or elsewhere?? Thanks!

Yep, I buy from them all the time.

Haven't used mine in years, I use the thumb and finger method. In fact, pretty sure Hoggryder and I were the ones who convinced the old board to do the belt that way... Lot's of years of Harley ownership between us at that point.

If you really want the stock tool, I'll try to find/dig mine out and mail it to you. Shoot me a pm.

My personal experience is that the belt tension hardly ever needs to be messed with, anyway. I've got over 12,000 miles on mine (see my signature block) and the belt's needed adjusting maybe twice.....
