To say I'm happy is an understatement! I bought this belt thinking it might be the right size and to my surprise, it is! I still have to time the drums but I'm delighted the belt fits. I also got the driving V pulley belts that drive the engine to drum pulleys, so I'm gonna take an evening or 2 this week to try and finish it for the weekend.

@_Wilson_™ look what arrived in mail today....

Yea you are correct, but as we have seen on other threads it can quickly turn into a messy situation. Just want to keep things friendly and on topic is all......

LOL, No problem. I thought it was humorous really but you gotta do your job. Ha Ha

eBay specials..

Ironic , all the talk about corn and this video found me .... Boom Corn

Shade forgot one thing.....quick access to the forum for those questions that always pop up. Ask me how do I know??? Also you prolly will use your camera to post pictures here when having questions, a picture is worth a thousand words......other than that think he covered it.....

All Honda ATV -- DON"T SCREW IT IN when checking the oil

Just thought of something else needed and that's a flywheel puller, at least I needed it for my 1998 450. I bought a cheap one from Ebay for $15 and made the job easy, not sure if there is an alternate method.

I had to look twice, to see "Stroker" 😆 Guess nobody wants one that says 388 😉

i thought you had forgotten about that.... lol...... those look great!!!

Yep , I cut that sentence short ----- what I meant was " You are seeing 13.98 volts coming off your battery " of your truck running -------------

Thinking he has his truck hooked up with jumper cables with truck running. Regulated voltage from the truck(?)

That was a cool video.

Think it needs an upgrade to a nice 450 engine......

air impact is a must have tool !. you may or may not need a clutch puller tool ?, i've removed them without the tool, and with the tool. all depends on how your aim is ?..lol. what i mean by this is, if your good with a hammer ? ( i use a hammer ), mallet ?, you can smack the back side of the centrifugal clutch to knock it off the crank. if your aim sucks ?, then i highly say buy a clutch tool remover !. a deep socket, metric set is a must have, sizes up to 27mm is a must have !. 1/2 drive for the air impact. #1 tool to have ?..IS THE SERVICE MANUAL !. a camera for taking pic's as you tear it apart comes in very handy if you are taking it apart, walk away, come back later..and forgot where parts go ?..lol. these models are very simple. please keep in mind: when tearing these down ?, ALWAYS HAVE A FULL ENGINE GASKET KIT, COMPLETE OIL SEAL KIT, D.I.D. CAM CHAIN, NEW OIL FILTER ( DO NOT INSTALL THE FILTER BACKWARDS ! ), NEW WET CLUTCH APPROVED ENGINE OIL, AND A TUBE OF YAMABOND OR HONDABOND IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE ON HAND ( THIS IS FOR SPOTS THAT DO NOT HAVE A GASKET ), if you have all this ?, then your golden !.

I cleaned this thread up deleting the posts that went sideways into politics. We have to keep these threads on topic so keeping a better eye on things...
