Maintenance

Drive Belt Tension Inspection

1. Elevate and support the rear of the 

motorcycle with the wheel slightly 
above the ground. Use an 
appropriate motorcycle support 
placed securely under the frame. 

2. Place the transmission in neutral.

CAUTION!

Make sure the motorcycle is 

stable when elevated. Injury may occur if 
the motorcycle tips or falls.

3. Position the small o-ring on the 

belt tension gauge directly over 
the 10 lbs. (4.5 kg) mark on the 
plunger as shown.

4. Place a tape measure or rule next to the drive belt as shown.

5. Place the base of the tension gauge bracket squarely against the lower strand of the drive 

belt halfway between the front and rear drive sprockets. Use the tape measure or ruler 
and record the position of the base of the tension gauge bracket. This position represents 
zero force.

6. 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 record the position of 
the base of the tension gauge bracket.This position represents 10 lbs. (4.5 kg) of force.

7. Calculate the difference between the zero force position and the 10 lbs. (4.5 kg) of force 

position you recorded. See page 55.

8. Belt deflection must be measured and adjusted with the belt at the tightest spot. Measure 

deflection in 4 spots by rotating the wheel 90 degrees in the forward direction between 
measurements. Adjust tension as necessary. See page 57.

Important Belt Deflection Information

• Measure / adjust belt deflection at the tightest spot.

• Belt and sprockets must be clean, dry, and at room temperature for accurate deflection 

measurement.

• Lowering kits affect belt deflection specifications. Consult an authorized VICTORY dealer if a 

lowering kit is installed on your motorcycle.

• When a new drive belt is installed, tension must be adjusted after 500 miles (800 km) to ensure 

maximum belt service life.
