Drive Belt Tension
4. 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
.
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 record the position of the base
of the tension gauge bracket. This position represents
10 lbs.
force
.
6. Calculate the difference between the
zero force
position and the
10 lbs. force
position you recorded. Refer to the chart on page 87
for belt specifications.
7. 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 (page 90).
Important Drive Belt Deflection
Information
S
Measure / adjust belt deflection at tightest
spot
S
Belt and sprockets must be clean, dry,
and at room temperature for accurate
deflection measurement
S
Lowering kits affect belt deflection speci-
fications. Consult an authorized Victory
dealer if a lowering kit is installed on your
motorcycle.
S
When a new drive belt is installed, tension
must be adjusted after 500 miles to en-
sure maximum belt service life.
