Default first REAL ride

just got back from a weekend in the southern tier of NY with my 650. its like a whole new machine with out 2ft. of snow! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] my dad was doubting the power on my 650 so he tried to smoke me on my grandpa's p400 (HA!) he was in high and i easily smoked him in low until i noticed i was in low so i stopped and shifted to high as he passed me then i gave him a REAL beat down.

a couple weeks ago i had the dealer tighten the belt when i got it home it chirped a little in neutral but then it went away with a couple of miles. over the weekend i noticed that when i had it in gear it would chirp at idle (quite noticeably) but if i took it out of gear it would stop. just wondering if its normal. thanks

If the noise isn't too severe then I would leave it. A slight squeal while idleing in gear would mean the belt is just a little tight. This would be perfect for belt wear and give you good bottom end response.
