Stop by or order a belt tension gauge from Harley to check it. I have one one from 1986 and have used it many times just to make sure the belt is not vibrating or slapping too much. The only time I have heard of a belt letting go was when a smal rock got lodged in the sprocket and worn a hole in the belt. The guy said he heard a clicking noise but thought nothing of it??????
Thanks! My mom gave the name when I was growing older and it stuck! Still does!!!! She called me a recycled teenager because I refused to grow up!!!!Thank you very much Recycledteen (nice name!). Very likely my mechanic has a tension gauge. Best regards
