Just replaced the rear SC belt, took me 2 hours mind but its the first time Ive done it, next time I recon on under an hour easy. Id suggest anyone handy with a wrench has a go themselves as god knows how VX can charge you £400 to do it... gotta remove the charger sir.... Bo**ocks!

Now if only someone would make a HD front tensioner! read

Really wish I'd read this a few weeks ago when mine went. Did you have any sort of maintenance manual, or was it as easy as un-bolting things as you found them?

I did, much to the dismay of my wallet. It was coming up to a service interval as well, so the whole lot was done to the tune of just under £600. Bad times.
