Hi guys im a new atv rider and just purchased a used kingquad 700 with 4000kms.I have been reading threads on matinence intervals and well looks like belt change time i guess.Ok i ordered a new dayco xtx belt and i have the manual for the quad from the internet.The removal procedure requires a speciality tool called a rotor holder.I called my dealer and the cost is $132.00 holy crap is there any way around this or just bring it to dealer?I have my own garage and tools and it will be against my better judgement to pay them if i can do it myself but i dont want to pay that much for a tool.I want to know how to replace the belt incase im in a jam when im out riding and i can carry my own tools and replace a broken belt myself.Any help would be great guys and thanks in advance.

The tool just probably helps spread the sheaves on the secondary clutch. just do it like this video and yank the belt from the middle and walk it off the secondary with the ATV in neutral.

I changed belts on many makes of sleds and ATVs and never requires a special tool.
Unless Suzuki managed to make a simple job hard in some way. LOL
