My drive belt light came on today and I assume it needs replacing as I couldn't get over 12 mph as I "limped" out of the woods. Any suggestions on a replacement belt or anything else that may cause the light to come on?

 

The belt light will come on every 100 hrs no matter what shape the belt is in. It is a service reminder to check the belt and clutches. I bet you have nothing wrong with your belt so you just need to Reset the limp mode and go. If you do have belt problems, go with the Brute Force 750 belt.

 

simplest fix. buy a dynatek cdi. it will NEVER go into limp mode again and gain you horsepower and make it run cooler. go to ebay and type it in i think they are around 200 now and well worth every penny. i bought one of the first ones for the 650 and it burnt out for no reason and i contacted the company in california. i sent it back and they sent me a new one and by the next weekend i had it. also it could be that the switch was tripped inside the clutch cover. if you have a dynatek though that won't matter if that is tripped either.
