Grin Huh What! You're kidding! Grin Huh

Just like that, huh?


I do suspect that my belt is jumping teeth, though. Either that, or something in the rear hub is a rye. It started a long time ago when I would hear a single thunk when goosing it hard pulling out. Now it's making the sound more than once on some relatively easy throttle pulls.

Belt squeaks too.  Tongue

Maybe I should get one of those chain drive thingy's Tongue Roll Eyes

Ahh, but money, money, money! Roll Eyes

I sometimes hear/feel a "thunk, thunk" when pulling out. Is the belt jumping teeth?


Are you the only one hearing/feeling this Thumping when pulling out? What does it sound like during insertion?

Visual inspection. Belt teeth are tall. It's gonna hafta be a Super loose belt to do that. Check the front pulley and belt tension.

I think I finally fully understand the joke, and dirty it is....  Huh and graphic... Huh

One reply to that-- I wish! Like Kenny's avatar says, suzukisavage.com is the singles club! Tongue

The belt? I adjusted the tension before. Maybe my judgement is too far on the easy side tension-wise.

You better check the front pulley nut... if that goes, switching to chain drive won't save you...

If you loosen the two big hose clamps on the carb you can rotate the whole thing enough to remove the float bowl and work on it easily.


which direction is easiest/best to rotate the carb with this method?  Bowl toward the shifter or bowl toward the rear brake pedal?
I ask because my carb rides against my battery box and I have to take apart a buncha stuff to get the carb off.


simple method to get the bat box outta the way...
hook a ratchet strap to the top right shock mount run it around the bat box and put the other hook on the axle.  tighten till you got a little clearance.


Sorry for that bum steer, guys. I completely forgot about the battery box being in the way. Mine is gone, and a little lithium battery taking about half the room makes it possible to get the bowl off. My bad.
