How many miles do you have on the Spyder? Are you hearing any noise from the rear or front sprockets?
It could be warn rear bearing, Or worst Front sprocket.:dontknow:
Don't know how far you can ride, If it's just the rear you could probably bye riding easy get to the next station?.

thanks - 9.000 mls (15.000kms) - now I drove to a petrol-station to give out some pressure of the rear tire and the shock (too hard) - now the belt is on the back on the right position ?!? - hear nothing - only the standard "click" on hard-driven curves ..

The belt is to loose, misalignment or the rear wheel bearings are shot. :lecturef_smilie:

:chat: From experince. Coming back from Spyders in the Smokies 2010 I noticed my belt was running off the rear pully. Don't know how long or when it started to run our but, it was 900 mile trip back home. Tryed to aline the belt and couldn't when I got home. Took the wheel off to look,and I had spun the bearing. The took the sprocket to a mechine shop had the sprocket sleeved and sized and a new bearing pressed in. what did this was. Me,I tighted the belt to tight.nojoke End of story

Roger had same problem and found that when he had a new tire mounted the dealer tightened it too tight
