Default 650 KEBC motor question

I have about 15 hours on this thing and everything seems fine but the KEBC motor sounded funny today.Has anyone else heard their motor........sounding confused.......like it was going back and forth?.Also,mine seems to want to creep forward when coming to a stop after letting off the gas but not grabbing the brakes?The engine braking works fine but I had never noticed this before.One last question,I may just not be used to it yet but the belt drive seems VERY noisy on this thing.My Kodiak was quiet and I switched with a buddies 660 grizz this weekend and it was almost silent.I know this may be apples to oranges but does everyone elses seem noisy..........like a 747 taking off? LOL

The belt is loose, and it does sound like a 747 taking off all the time.
You have to run the belt tight enough that is squeals in gear at idle.
The belt will live longer and the quad will haul butt!!

If I am not mistaken, the whining sound that sounds like a turbocharger spooling up, is not the belt drive. That sound is coming from the straight-cut gears in the transmission.

The belt should never squeel. If it squeels at idle but not when under power, it's too tight. If it's the other way around, it's too loose. Squeeling is not a normal condition.
