Mine did that when I had the belt too tight.   Logged     Grow Old or Die Trying...   The administrator has disabled public write access. #283252 syfdeadhead (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 82 Re:low pitch whine @ 15 mph 2 Years ago   16000 mile service about 6 week ago but this started yesterday, belt has about 1/4" to 3/8" play in it.   Logged     Last Edit: 2010/05/19 14:33 By syfdeadhead.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #283266 Clifford (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1781 Re:low pitch whine @ 15 mph 2 Years ago   syfdeadhead wrote: 16000 mile service about 6 week ago but this started yesterday, belt has about 1/4" to 3/8" play in it. When you check a belt don't move it up & down like you do for a chain. Twist the belt and it should go about 45 degrees; if it won't go 45 it is too tight and if it goes more it is too loose.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 4337 Re:low pitch whine @ 15 mph 2 Years ago   Yep, too tight. I can rotate mine 90 degrees. I guess it depends on your grip strength. Kind of like the difference between pink & purple...   Logged     Grow Old or Die Trying...   The administrator has disabled public write access. #283283 ironman (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2378 Re:low pitch whine @ 15 mph 2 Years ago   How do I deal w/ low pitch whine @ 15mph, go faster so I can't hear the old lady   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #283284 rand1965 (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 545 Re:low pitch whine @ 15 mph 2 Years ago   put on a solo seat   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #283285 rand1965 (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 545 Re:low pitch whine @ 15 mph 2 Years ago   put on a solo seat   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
