Pre-Ride Inspections

Rear Drive Belt

1. Check drive belt tension. See pages 96-97.

Tip: The drive belt system must be cool, clean and dry to accurately

measure belt tension (deflection). Do not measure belt tension

when the belt or drive system is wet or when it is hot (such as

immediately after riding).

2. Check the drive belt teeth for stones or other debris.
3. Inspect drive belt condition. See page 97. If you

discover cracks, broken teeth or frayed edges, replace

the drive belt before riding. See the INDIAN

MOTORCYCLE Service Manual or an authorized INDIAN

MOTORCYCLE dealer.
