Where was the sound coming from. Tires sliding or belt\clutch housing?

This happens on my V-Force as well sometimes, I believe the belt is to loose. Remove a shim on the secondary and that should cure it. Nyroc has detailed information on how to do this on the P650, visit his website. Do a search for his name on here and look in his signature.
