The mesurement for the belt tension must be done with the rear wheel off the ground and taken at one point and the wheel spun 180 degrees and measured again. while checking this must use 10lbs of force at the point of measurement. that is what I Interrupted here is what it said in the manual understand this is from a V2K Manual.
•Using the jack and jack attachment under the frame pipe
ribs, lift the rear wheel off the ground (see Rear Wheel
Removal in the Wheels/Tires chapter). •Visually inspect the belt for damage (see Belt Wear and
Damage Inspection).
If the belt is damaged, replace it with a new one.
•Mark the initial belt position [C] on the belt cover window. •Using the tension gauge [A], push up 45 N (4.5 kgf, 10
lb) of force from under and on the center of the belt at the
gauge of the lower belt cover [b]. •Measure the deflection (length between mark [D] and [C])
of the belt.
NOTE
○Push the belt by the gauge until the top surface [A] of
the stopper comes to the 45 N loaded scale [b], marked
“45N”.
○Push up on the center of the belt. An inaccurate reading
will occur if the edge of the belt is pushed up.
○Look parallel to the belt during inspection. An inaccurate
reading will occur if looking from any other angle.
•Inspect the belt deflection at two positions by rotating the
rear wheel.
Special Tools - Drive Belt Tension Gauge: 57001-1585
•Inspect the drive belt deflection at arbitrary position, and
record the value [A].
•Turn
