shorter belt maybe?

 

Thats the short of it.

 

IF you do not have an impact wrench you will want to get the pulley nut loose before you raise the bike up or loosen the rear wheel & belt.

Remove front cover.
bend the tabs of the locking ring back.
Put the bike in first gear.
Have someone sit on the bike & apply both brakes hard.
SOcket, breaker bar & cheater pipe over the breaker bar loosen the nut.
Be sure to torque the drive pulley nut to specs, 72 ft lbs.

BTW, Yamaha suggests a new lock tab each time.

 

We can go to 31T without a change of belt or other negative consequences. Correct??

Its a bolt in deal.

On the negative side you will eventually have to purchase new shirts & jackets with a longer sleeve length.

 

Woody,
If I tie a rope around my neck and attach it to the handlebars, will I get taller?
