Rock in Belt

[Roy's Bassets]

Went for a ride today, came across some road work. They were putting down gravel and tar. When I got home I noticed a rock in the belt, it but a hold in the belt. I got it out, but should I keep an eye on the hole or replace the belt. Why isn't there a guard on the lower belt. I can see why it happened.:gaah:

Been there done that. I suggest changing it.nojoke

Definetly replace belt. Rocks are the biggest problem with belts. Your lucky it didn't break already. Happened on my Victory motorcycle. Also check pulleys. I didn't and blew belt four hundred miles later. $260 per belt. Learned my lesson the hard way.

If it were me I would buy a new belt and keep it with you and run this one till it's done. I changed out a belt for a guy and a month later he put another hole in the new belt. He wound up trading the Spyder in on a bike with a belt. :dontknow:

Contact SpyderPops, he has a new belt guard for the Spyder.
