im having a problem with my bike shifting. i think the pully is not coming all the way out when i stop. i can come to a stop and it still wants to go. i took all my plastics off and the belt housing. the belt looks good.

Welcome! Look at the belt itself for any glazed,burnt spots on the sides of the belt. This can cause creeping problems if you've partially glazed a belt either pulling loads in hi range,stuck trying to get out,etc.This is the first thing that comes to mind. Plus while you have the cover off and in an OPEN area blow any belt dust from the clutches and then see if it creeps. OPT

On the 550 and 850 we had the tool to hold the rear clutch open to change belts,but can be done with out it. You have to pull up the belt and walk it of the rear clutch. It's harder than most other belts,but just takes a little extra umph . OPT

Happened to look again and you should have the combo shock/clutch holder tool in your tool kit. It just hooks in the clutch slot,leverage down on the handle which opens the rear clutch and the belt just slips off the clutches. Didn't ever check the kits at the shop. OPT
