I just knock the swing-arm bolt in a little, leave my rear wheel on, loosen the top shock bolt and put the belt on. It will fit between swing-arm and frame. no need to remove wheel. You will have to loosen the wheel axle so you can move the wheel forward to get belt on.
Great. I wonder how many miles does a belt go? That is an intense job, especially removing the swing-arm. I can understand why people switch to a chain drive.
I have 96k on mine stock belt atm. I do have a leak in inner primary or somewhere in there (haven't tore it down yet) so might change belt and swingarm bushing while I have it down that far.
@@cjkirk30sJust taking a wild guess… check the shift shaft seal on inner primary. Little pita seal but it’ll make it look like a bad leak from the primary gaskets.
@@whiteshedcustomsThanks but I got it. Wasn’t too bad. Replaced A LOT of parts on the way. And added some new shocks. Bike rides tight. Kinda like replacing shocks on a car 50,000 miles past due… don’t know what you’re missing until it’s replaced. 😒
@@whiteshedcustoms how do you get it off without one then? Can you do it by hand if you wedge something between the sprockets? Thanks so much for the fast reply
@@whiteshedcustoms I'll look into the tool. I don't really want to buy one cause I'll most likely never use it again. I have an impact an every video I seen no one else mentioned it. I might just risk it.
