Kickstarter fund raisers are not real products i.e. Skully just went under and will not deliver on many offers to back the AR1 helmet. Looks neat, anyways. Under 10 lb-ft the options for a partial or fully releasing torque wrench are limited, most are dial based.

How about spanner wrench for the rear suspension preload adjustment? Does anyone know the proper diameter? I sure would like to change that: for 2-up riding or for carrying a load, like a 50lb inflatable SUP bag ...

Inflating SUP with a compressor would be nice too. What is the most substantial compressor that would run off of the accessory circuit connector(s)?

What do the belts cost? I'm sure it's critical to have a spare while on the road. My dealer is 2-hr drive away.

Doesn't the frame have to be dis-assembled in order to replace a belt?

Yes. But if you want to minimize down time I still highly recommend having a spare so you don't have to wait in the event the dealer doesn't have one in stock or you have to go to a non Zero shop to have them replace.  If you have a belt any motorcycle shop can install the belt.

When adjusting belt an alignment tool like this is a big help. It's a little tricky cause the back of the pulley has some ribs cast in, just bridge them. I put it on top and it barely clears belt guard. Used a flashlight to see in there. Don't spin the wheel while it's on there.  Just cause there's marks on the swingarm doesn't mean they're exact. While your at it it wouldn't hurt to remove the adjuster bolts from the swingarm and coat the threads with some anti seize compound (there did appear to be some on bolts but I wanted to be sure) Just jack up the bike, Support tire with wood or similar, remove axle nut. You should now be able to slide the axle right out and access the adjuster bolts 13mm. The reason I added this was Ive seen lots of mx bikes especially KTMs, seizing their bolts which then can break off in the arm. You DONT want this to happen! It's a royal PITA even if you're a fastener removal specialist. A few extra steps will pay off and keep you on the road.

This lift is the business for adjusting belt etc. You can adjust the height for almost any bike.
