"The hell do you mean it's SUPPOSED to do that?"
Even better is where it occurred. I coasted into the lot of this fine establishment:
Oh well, could have been much worse. I did over 300 miles today and this happened at the end of the day, less than 6 miles from home. Much of my riding was in deserted territory, so the same thing happening two hours earlier would have been some really bad $@#!.
Here's a few other pics from today, since I'm posting anyway:
Sorry to see that Monkey
Glad it happened close to home
I always wondered what kind of job it is to replace the belt..
I have manual but was afraid to look. Still am.
How long is a typical life of a belt?

Glad you're so close to home when it happened. I had a belt go for 55K+ miles, put on a replacement and it lasted less than 60 days. Dealer told me it was warranted for 30 days. So go figure. I'm into 30K+ with this one and still looks like new. You never know.

That would really suck breaking put in the middle of no where. Good thing you were back in civilization when it happened.

you should try going into a rice bike shop sometime. They actually sell bikes and parts there! You won't have to walk through the 3000 square foot " lifestyle boutique" and Tee shirt store to get to the parts department.
