Good videos as always Wayne.
Was there a difference in the belt widths - ie. showing wear on the orig. belt?
What mileage on the orig. belt?
Did you look at & or clean the rollers & ramps?

I measured the original belt last fall and it was within spec. Just can't remember what it measured. I'm readying the scoot for sale so I want it to be ready to roll in the best possible way. The new owner will have a backup belt incase of breakage.

Original belt had 8400 miles.

Yep looked at rollers and roller replacement videos coming soon along with results of changing them.

Just curious what model replacement scooter/motorcycle you might be considering?

Appreciate the effort you have made producing your videos . . excellent lighting, focus, editing, and without nauseating camera movements and atrocious music.

I already have my 2010 KYMCO Xciting 500Ri. It will be my mission to figure out this cold start issue I've been having. Other than that though, I've been super satisfied with the scoot since I purchased it used in Sept 2015.

Appreciate the comments on the videos. I do not consider myself mechanically inclined but after all I've done to the Super8, I feel much more confident. The belt and rollers were one of the final obstacles I faced and it went much easier than I thought.
