    Top job and well done this has to be one of the "must do" mods on the SM650.

    Daniel, thanks for the comment. You need to have tools (torque wrench is a must) available, blue locktite and some space. Basic experience with motorbike mechanics is also highly recommended. I am no expert, I was used to do the motorbike maintenance myself, and this was pretty straight forward - the instructions that come with the kit have been updated since my installation based on observations and comments from users - so I believe it´s really doable in home conditions.

    There is no need to remove the swing arm or take the wheel completely out from under the mudguard the pulley will fit on ok and the chain if twisted through 90 degrees comes past the the swing arm pivots

Now with slightly 20k use, still 0 adjusting, checked every link, all perfect. The chain cost me ~ 300 euro and i was not allowed to use aluminium sprockets, the sprockets are also 20k km on, and still good 🧐

    The YSS rear shocks looks interesting, are they 360mm long? Could you please post the model number of the shocks, the ones you have installed do come in different sizes. However, I like the modifications on your bike, the belt drive as well. Thank you for your spirit in biking, and every thing that you have demonstrated is a great help to all the fellow bikers, much appreciated. Thank you

    Thank you very much for this very helpful video 🙂 I have also bought this same belt drive kit from RSTech for my Super Meteor. I am still working up the courage to fit my one 😳 Do you think it would be a good idea to get myself a special jack to raise the height of my bike a bit more to made removing the rear wheel a little easier?

    Hi Felix! Thank you for your comment! I think it is doable even without the jack, but if you have one, it would definitely make things easier, not only removing the wheel, but also testing the belt on the pulley once installed...I decided not to purchase one as this is one time project...

    There is no connecting part as far as I´ve noticed. I´d have to cut it with a grinder - and that´s something I did not want to mess with. Recent reviews say, that if you disconnect rear shock and drop the swing arm, you can take it out without having to remove the spindle. That´s good news!!
