Check Drive Belt Tension
1. Mount the motorcycle and bring it to an upright position.
2. Position the small O-ring on the belt tension gauge
directly over the 10 lb. mark on the plunger.
3. Have an assistant complete steps 4–5.
4. Place the base of the tension gauge bracket squarely
against the lower strand of the drive belt at the front of the
lower belt guard. On the lower belt guard, mark the position of
the base of the tension gauge bracket. This mark represents
zero force.

5. Push the plunger upward until the small O-ring touches
the tension gauge body. Make sure the tension gauge is
seated squarely against the drive belt, and move the large
O-ring until it aligns with the
zero force mark you made on the
lower belt guard.
6. Remove the belt tension gauge and measure the
distance between the base of the tension gauge bracket and
the large O-ring. If the measurement is between 1/4” and 3/
8”, the drive belt tension is correct.
7. Adjust belt tension as necessary.

Adjust Drive Belt Tension

rear axle castle nut enough to allow the rear axle to slide
back and forth in the swing cage.
2. Turn both rear axle adjusters an equal amount until the
drive belt tension is correct, making sure the adjusters are
firmly seated against the adjuster collars.
3. Tighten the adjuster jam nuts.
4. Tighten the rear axle castle nut.
