UPDATE! PLEASE READ! So after some research and discovering a problem with my bike feeling "bouncy" it was caused due to belt alignment. The left adjustment block is for setting the tension, the right is for setting the belt alignment. Don't be surprised if your right adjustment block is more forward than the left tension side. You want the belt to be riding center on the sprocket as much as possible. If you do not have the sonic tension meter tool, set the left adjustment block to 18.8mm for a brand new belt, for a used belt set it to 19.2mm. The right adjustment block is what aligns the belt within the sprocket, you want to try and get a 1mm gap on both sides. Now this is frustrating to do! If you tried all you can and can't get it exactly centered it's fine, just get at least some metal showing on either side, just don't let the belt ride on the outer lip on either side of the sprocket. I suggest running the bike on the center stand letting the wheel spin and watching where the belt rides. Starting out set the right adjustment block a little loose, tap it forward with a mallet to get it seated, then with the wheel spinning carefully tighten the adjustment screw until the belt looks center on the sprocket. Tighten your adjustment screw lock nuts and Torque the axle bolt. Good luck!
Awesome thanks for this info. Just removed my back wheel to balance it and reset to what it measured at. Mine is 16.5mm on the left and 16.8 on the right, and this is how it was from the factory. Not sure if it should be 18.8mm on the left as I've only done 500 miles. I'll adjust the right side more to move my belt more central now.
@@sonofodin5514 Doesn't have to be, the right block is for aligning the belt wich in turn aligns the wheel. The Cyclepidea service manual states 18.8mm for both sides but that's not possible if you want the belt riding within the sprocket and not on either outer lip. Me and another person on AK FB group have been messing with tension and belt alignment and it's best to not have OCD about it. Unless you have the Sonic tension meter tool to be 100% certain. As long as isn't too tight or loose and the belt somewhat centered it's fine.
I been hoping someone would record/film this. Thanks!…..not sure how tall you are but I am 6’ tall. Removing that butt/back support from the seat allows me to fully stretch my legs out in front of me like on the big cruiser bikes. Super comfortable and you no longer look like you are on a child’s bike with your knees up in the air. The one thing I hate about scooters.
Hi do you happen to know what size tool do i need to remove front tire? Im buying a brand new ak in the philippines for our philippine loop. I want to buy all the tools i need here in the u.s before my flight.
@@Kahuna_550 I just bought a 2022 AK550. It's still at the dealer in MN and I'm waiting for decent weather to ride it home to WI. Can't wait! I've enjoyed the videos you've made about your scoot so far. Hope you'll keep them coming!
