  • Cam shaft drive belt replacement interval

    Yam suggests replacement at 1000 hours.

    One guy *****s exclusively at ~ 1000 RPM. 1000 hours at 1000 RPM is 1,000,000 total revolutions in the life of the belt.

    Another guys drives balls to the walls everywhere he goes. Averages 5500 RPM. 1000 hours at 5500 RPM is 5,500,000 total revolutions in the life of the belt.

    Would one think that it is Yams thinking that the number of turns the belt makes is of no concern?

    I thought it was 5 years or 5oo hrs.

      Maybe the ECU needs to tell us when to change the belt.

        I like it. Maybe together with an optical scanner to continuously monitor the condition of the belt.

          Let’s cover the motor with optical scanners. Can’t have too much info.

            Or too much cost.
