Maintenance

Rear Drive Belt Cleaning

Cleaning the drive belt will maximize belt and sprocket life

and minimize drive line noise. Clean the belt at every tire

change. Clean the belt more often if riding in dirty, dusty or

high debris environments.
1. Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with a cup of warm

water.

2. Use a soft nylon brush to clean the belt and sprocket

teeth with the soapy water. Clean well in corner areas

where road debris and belt dust can collect.

3. Rinse the belt with clear water, then dry thoroughly.

Tip: Do not inspect or adjust drive belt tension when the belt or

drive system is wet or hot. Improper adjustment will result.
