Drive Belt Condition
Adjust drive belt tension after the first 2,500 miles (4,000 km) of operation. Replace the drive belt 1 and both sprockets as a set if the drive belt has over 30,000 miles (48,000 km) of service at the time of damage or failure.
When inspecting the drive belt for signs of wear, refer to the Drive Belt Wear Analysis table on the next page to determine whether the belt needs to be replaced. See the SLINGSHOT Service Manual or an authorized dealer for more information.
DO NOT attempt to check belt tension if the belt has been exposed to rain or washing within a 24 hour period or if the belt is hot from being in use. Allow the belt to cool down to ambient temperature before measuring belt tension.
