Well another weekend trip and another week of oredering parts and fixing the old girl again...lol

My buddy was tryin to pull a 350 Bruin out of some sloppy mud with his 660 Grizz but couldnt get traction...I was a few yards ahead of them goin up a steep but dry and hardpacked hill so I hooked on to the grizz (both of us have 27" outlaws) the brute pulled them forward about 10 feet then SNAP BANG POP went the belt doh!!! any ideas for a good replacement and any heads up or things i need to know before crackin the case and changing it...and i just put all the plastic back on after the shifter adjustment too dangit all!! =D

 

Cracked the case on mine today to replace the belt.. belt light came on so
I fugure I'd replace it once I pulled the old belt off. Well, belt looked great.. so I
blew it out and slipped the cover back on and proceed to test ride it. Belt light
now blinks and rev limiter is constantly on. now it is spitting and popping.
It has different features inside the belt housing that is not on the 650 Praire.
Nothing I have done will reset it. Now Aggravated. Ordering the repair manual
@www.repairmanual.com.

 

When your revlimiter is on and the belt light is on just take it back to the dealer they will reset it and tell you how they did it

 

here is a link on how to reset the belt light and limp mode.

Did you just try adjusting your belt deflection & resetting the belt light? A secondary shim & reset is a lot cheaper than a new belt.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] A loose belt will trip your belt sensor and put it in limp mode.

Were you in low range? typically if you get a little movement you should be allright. You might find your shifter is still out of adjustment. Never seen a belt break only burn.

 

Appreciate the link grizzkiller. I never replaced the belt. It looked as good as the new one. Not sure on how to adjust the light sensors but shimming it up soundslike the ticket. Any good sites to order the shims from? Hope to have it going by Thursday night for the weeken ride.

Just visit your Kawi Dealer. Think I paid $5 or $7 each. Hard to beat if you got to pay shipping costs. Got 3 different sizes .6, .8, and forget the other size. Some come with a single 1.4 shim. If yours cme with 2 shims inside the secondry just take out the smallest one.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
