The thing is...did the guy actually do a proper test with a gauge or did he just feel compression and assume it's fine? What measurement did he get? It should be about 100psi you'll see if you look through this thread and on the subject of looking through this thread there is detailed info on setting up the pv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Airhead Posted October 13, 2013 Author Moderator Share Posted October 13, 2013 there are two types of pv my 2003 bike had a diamond shaped end that went inside of the pulley and this type has the means of fitting it in a position that would reduce power output, the other type had no restricted position, with that type you either had it right or wrong by 180 degrees; you'd have to take the pulley off to see what you have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
