I took some pictures today to show how to change the belt, secondary spring, primary spring and make belt adjustments on a P650/700, Twin Peaks 700 or Arctic Cat 650. I know most of you know how to do this but I thought I would do it anyway.

Click on My 650 Photos, then click on Belt Adjustment Pictures to the right of the screen if interested. I hope you will find them useful and enjoyable.

 

KISSOFDEATH,

Nice website, lots of work & very considerate of you to go to so much trouble, labor of love i guess. You & Nyroc make quite a team with your helpful information & how to pics. Your trail rides looked like a lot of fun , as did your other photos. I did the shim removal on my Cat a while back & could really associate with your topic on that. I am a little puzzled about the 4 degree offset key & exactly what it does to make such an improvment though. Regards, Jerico1

 

Very cool. For me, threads like yours are very helpful. One question -- what did you use to make the spring compressor tool? Was that a PVC pipe end cap?

Thanks guys for the comments.

Yeah that was a pvc end cap. I think the threaded rod was 1/2".

Jerico1 the degree key will give you low and mid range power. It didnt effect top end at all on mine. I think its a mod worth doing providing you dont have to buy the flywheel puller. I borrowed mine from my dealer.
