pull the pulley guard and belt guards.
remove pulley, this will be the hard part.
if you still have what's left of the belt, slip it onto the pulley.
pick a small socket with straight sides
put it on top of the pulley under the belt.
that should lock it in place while you crank on the pulley nut.
pull that side shock
raise rear wheel and pull axle
loosen adjusters
roll the wheel forward and you should be able to get the belt on.

Trying to grasp what you are saying versy, it just isn't registering. Has anyone used a C clamp, wedging it against something while clamped to the pulley?

Get belt on, lay socket under the belt, against engine, Clamp belt, down on the right, towards sidestand. The lump will jam and stop the pulley and the belt will hold it.

I was rebuilding the top end on a Raptor. Getting help and advice was difficult. Pics, with arrows and labels, not just socket, Nine MM socket. Now thats literally jamming.

Reply #23 - 07/01/15 at 18:34:25 Agreed, this place is one of the best little hangouts on the web. That's ALL due to the people who come here. You all have gotten me out of a couple jams in the few months I've owned my Savage, for which I am grateful.

Well poop and darn.....

As I stated earlier I ride because I must commute off the island to work, riding a ferry.
I get off work at 2:30PM. I get in my "cage" cuz the belt issue, and head for the ferry, well I mean, I try to head for the ferry....
It was so backed up, the road down to the water, I knew something was up.
I really didn't think it was the holiday rush, that will be tomorrow, but I made the decision to drive around. On the north end of the island, about as far away as can be from my house,is a bridge. The only bridge.
If you want to see it, click on this link:

Found out one of the two ferries broke down.......dang.
I got off at 2:30 and home at 6, I need my bike Undecided

I might play hooky tomorrow, Friday I have off....
