I haven't replaced a belt before but have seen kits that you could change from chain to belt and you had to do some cutting somewhere with a piece added in with the kit to replace the cut out part. thought that was just that kit that allowed you to do it that way with it being a mod.

ok, the kit I seen to convert to belt drive said that you had to cut a section out (can't remember if it was frame or swingarm), the kit had a piece that replaced the cut out part. it bolted in like the piece of frame that unbolts when you pull the motor (hoop frames). it's been like 5 years since I looked at it so not real sure.

it would make sense to have it set up so you didn't have to pull the SA to replace the belt. make it cheaper for the owner.
