I bought my '00 Scrambler 500 4 X4 used, 3 months ago used. I had to replace the belt and now I'm having all sorts of problems. It started making a noise as if the belt was rubbing the outer cover.It has since wasted the NEW Polaris factory belt. Is is a clutch problem? An alignment problem? Or a ? problem. I bought a Clymer manual and it doesn't seem be much help. Once before it chewed up my belt, the belt had completly reversed itself while riding. I would greatly desire some feedback. Thank you..
