2014 RT belt vibration

[Savant70648]

When I'm driving 83 MPH I feel the belt vibrating. Can-Am didn't fix this or how can I fix this?

I've yet to see a Spyder that did not exhibit belt vibration at some speed. There's an aftermarket belt tensioner that works wonders - check the threads about it.

Let us know how this works as I am thinking about one of these. Mine seems to do it at 58-62 mph and then at 81-83 mph.

If I'm going that fast :shocked:; I've got a lot more to worry about, than a bit of buzziness!

It is just a part of the animal to have some buzz or vibration at some speed. After all it is based on a motorcycle. I have two wheelers in my stable and everyone of them have buzz, vibration or something at some speed or another. I guess I have never expected the Spyder to be perfectly smooth no more than I would expect it out of a V twin cruiser. Just my opinion though.

But on the Spyder, it's fixable, and not caused by the motor....

By "fixable"; does that mean you feel that something might be broke? :dontknow:
I agree with Stan: it's the nature of the Beast...
You can buy a tensioner, if you wish...:2thumbs:
