In this video I show you all the details involved with changing out your Can-Am Ryker drive belt. Chapter titles are listed below, so you can easily skip around the video. I give you all the information the service manual leaves out!
You got this!! Hey, if I can do it, so can you!!!

NEW belt width:36.7 mm/1.45in
OLD belt width: 35.7mm/1.41in
PLEASE NOTE: The warning light and message will NOT go away after replacing the belt. You WILL need to bring it in to your local Can-Am dealership and have them reset the code. It is a very simple process and should only take a few minutes.
**** From subscriber Sam Smith: "What is interesting is that these belts wear from the sides not on the top and bottom(where the teeth are). It will become narrower as it wears".

I bought a used Ryker 600 in May. It has less than 10,000 miles on it, but it's a 2019 model - and according to the previous owner, still has the original belt. He didn't think it needed replacing until the 12000 mile maintenance cycle. I haven't had any problems, but I may change it out anyway. And after watching your video, I no longer feel I've been denied essential, need-to-know information.... 🙂
I have gained so much confidence with working on my bike from watching your videos! Thank you for showing the good and the bad of these projects.
Glad to help! So happy hear. Working on your own bike is very empowering.
Thank you for the drive belt installation instructional video and showing the problems encountered when installing the belt. It was also very interesting to see what the actual Ryker CVT looked like.
You are welcome! Thanks for watching Gamini!
Hey Beth! To get the new belt seated in properly, you don't need to drive the bike. Turn the drive wheel either way and you will see the belt work its way to the top. This is the same clutch system as I have on my sled (snowmobile) and have done this many times. Enjoyed your video, thanks!
Thanks for the tip! This should help others.
Wow! You are fearless. Love this one, problem-solving at its best. Things rarely go perfect the first few times, I like the fact that you are not afraid to keep trying until you get what you wanted.
So true! But you feel so accomplished when it is actually done!!
I love the fact that you might be a little intimated to do the install but you try it anyway and you don't give up. I appreciate the fact that you show your struggles (we all have them doing something new) and try to explain how you worked through them. Great job and thank you for sharing. I always am learning something new from you!
I appreciate that Noelle! Thank you so much for you comment!
One of your best videos. You shared the experience of both positions well. I appreciate your efforts to help me understand the feeling, challenges and safety considerations of a passenger ride.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for taking the time to comment such kind words! Much appreciated!!
I just wanted to say that I enjoy ever video you post. You’re so down to earth. After watching a few of your videos in my ryker research phase, I decided to purchase a ryker rally. I’m still in the new phrase but I’m enjoying it. Thanks for all the great videos you post. And btw you’re not pretending to be a mechanic, you are one for all the work you do on your ryker! 🤗
Thank you so much for the very kind comment. You made my heart smile and make all this hard work worth it. Thank you so much, ride safe have fun!
Love you very authentic videos 👍.....As a retired heavy equipment mechanic....I also appreciate that the folks who write service manuals, seldom get their hands dirty!😎
You are soooo right. I can only learn by watching, not reading. That’s how the channel started.
Interesting to see what the CVT looks like. A+ for tenacity and problem solving.
Thanks, always John!
Thank you for this video. You rock and do the stuff no one else does. I was scared to do this and I have been doing car maintence myself for my whole life. I just wanted one video of some one doing it and you delivered. Thank you again.
My absolute pleasure Dan! I got your back!
Just did my belt and plugs on my Ryker yesterday after watching your videos. Saved myself a lot of money. Forgot to check the rotation on the belt before getting it on. I got lucky, and it was right, lol. Thank you for your videos.
That’s awesome!!! Thanks so much for watching.
What a great video. You have definitely made the impossible looking come within reach.
Thank you! 😊
Very good job with great description & narration. You are a good mechanic! and you didn't curse or break a nail!
Thanks Rick, I appreciate it.
U are pretty smart and your videos help a lot.
I am waiting for my Ryker Rally 22 I use to ride motorcycles 🏍 ..
I am now Can-Am Ryker..
Thank God for them because as we get older holding up a motorcycle ain't easy...much love and thank you so much.
I live in Pittsburgh PA where we love a good ride..
Thank you so much Rozell! I ❤️ Pitt. Spent a lot of time there. Beautiful riding!!
Great job! I guessed the wrong belt. Yep, bringing mine in. Tough job! I think I'll wait for about 18,000 miles before I have it changed. Thank You for the video. Have a great weekend!
Just be careful. I don't recommend going against pushing scheduled maintenance. "They" know more than us! lol Be safe.
That is an industrial torque drive that been around for over 100 years. My 1975 Rokon Enduro motorcycle had a similar drive assy. There is definitely a trick to changing out the belt. What is interesting is that these belts wear from the sides not on the top and bottom(where the teeth are). It will become narrower as it wears. You did a good job. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks for the info Sam, I will add that info to the description section!
It's called a centrifugal clutch. It was common on ToteGoats, Cushmans, Rokons, Go-Karts, etc. It's the poor man's automatic transmission. Sadly, Can-Am could do a lot better.
@@thehoneybadger8089 I was a Rokon dealer in the 1970's and we modified our's extensively. Salisbury Drives made theirs and we changed out the springs on both the drive and driven clutches and got a lot more performance out of it.
Great video and great job you did! You are amazing! I will be saving this video for future reference when I change my belt on my Ryker
Awesome! Thank you! I appreciate the kind words!
Thank you very much for giving us confidence before we wrench our Rykers! I just did my wife's 2019 600 Ryker. The new drive belt number for the 600 ACE is 422280656. This part number supersedes the former 422280654. A quick test in the garage proved that the new belt got rid of the clunk at take off, which is awesome. We'll see next summer if this lasts. A couple of tricks I learned: Removing the muffler does helps a lot when trying to put the cap back on. It's only one bolt and a two spring clamp (but the springs are tricky to put back on if you've never done this). Finally, steering the wheels full lock to the left helped me get the clamshell higher up in the air.
Thanks for watching and the great information!!!! 👍🏼
By the way, I am a guy I watch your videos more than the guys ...U ROCK
Awww I really appreciate that!!!
Thanks so much Beth, this video was a great help… we jacked up the back wheel off the ground and then started the motor and gave the throttle a little turn and the belt tightened up very well ❤
Glad it helped! Thanks so much for watching!!
Just watched your video very good. I’m glad I watched it. I changed my belt at 17,000 and there was a lick of wear on it.
Glad my video helped and saved you some $$$$
First time changing out drive drive I did not read manual book because Italy words my bike was 2007 Piaggio mp3! I started watching you tube and learn how change it out that way! An Thanks for the video so much!!
My pleasure Roy, glad I could help!
Thanks, Beth! Your video provided the needed encouragement for me to tackle what looks to be a total P.I.T.A. task.
Yup, it is a PITA!! But feels great when you can say “I did that!”
I never subscribe but ya know what, you've taught me a lot. I appreciate it!! Thanks for taking the time to make these. Super informative and easy to understand
Wow! Thank you so much for the love and support!!
Bravo and very well done in sorting the CVT belt.
Thank so much. Yup, that one was a challenge!!
love your videos, keep the great work for the Ryker Fans
Thanks, will do! I appreciate you watching!!!
Those stats are sad!! I’m in the process of purchasing and already subbed. You’re pretty awesome and love your work.
Thanks for the sub! I appreciate you watching Chuck.
You have very informative videos. I hope to buy a Ryker 600 next spring. I haven’t rode motorcycles in 40 years. I am 71 years old and I miss riding.
You will love it! Keep riding/stay young!!! Ps you may want to take can-am's 3 wheel riding class. Worth every penny and gives you a sense of riding 3 wheels vs 2 (very different riding).
Perfect timing. My transmission maintenance just came on yesterday at 18 thousand miles. Glad to know why. I'm ordering part today. Thanks
Glad I could help!
Hello Beth, so I put in my cvt belt and I ran into the same issue as you. I took my ryker for a spin but my belt still sounds loose. I can hear it slapping around a little. I have to take her apart again to take a look, but if you have any more feed back or ideas on how to get it to fall into place please let me know. Thanks in advance.
@@MSCRFamily sorry you are having trouble. Would you like to set up a time when we could video chat? Also, read the other comments. Lots of great tips on here.
@@RykerRydes I figured my issue out. The secondary cvt had a roller broken and jammed inside not allowing it yo close. Your video is perfect. I appreciate you and your videos.
@@MSCRFamily If riding it didn't solve the problem the it's likely the new belt is defective
👍🦘 Good job mate, like anything it’s always awkward first time round but you overcame the hurdles as usual and got the job done. Trooper 👌
Thanks so much Steve!!
Thank you for your fyi videos I don’t have a bike yet but I’m saving your videos as i find them very informative
Thanks so much Juan! Happy to help!!
Love your videos 📸 so much learning a lot from you I love my ryker 2022 sport
Great to hear! That means a lot to me!!
Great video! Many greetings from Germany!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video Beth.. I too will be changing out my belt very soon...
Best of luck! Hope my video helps you.
Beth this is perfect timing. My ryker just gave me a code "transmission maintenance required" I'm at 10k miles and iv had it 2 years So I know it's my belt.
Absolutely! Good luck...you got this!
Beth I had my 2020 900 Ryker CVT belt changed by dealer at 10552 miles 6/11/2021, tech said my belt changed came earlier than most, I do a lot of riding here in Texas. So I need to get a service manual to do other work myself. Great videos you have for working on your bike.
How much did it cost to get your belt changed?
I am so happy you started to do installations. Your subs are sooooo high and needed. T Ryker one of your 1st subs 😊
Awesome!! Thank you sooooo much!
@@RykerRydes my husband doesn't know it but he is helping me change this thing over the weekend. From $1,200 out of pocket at the shop to $200 on my own its a NO BRAINER🤯
@@RykerRydes hi 👋. The link for the 600 does not say its for a 600. Are they compatible?
Amen to the last comment. I had a CanAm Commander several years ago, and the CVT was practically the same setup. As you back off the pressure, from the tool, that is against the pully, spin the upper pully by hand. Probably need to scotch the wheels and have the machine in neutral. As you spin the upper pully, the belt will automatically climb higher inside the upper pully.
Great advice. Thanks so much for watching.
You are one awesome woman keep the great vids coming
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate that Thomas!! Thanks for watching!
Beth you’re amazing!!! Thank u. Love from philly
My absolute pleasure, thanks for watching!
Glad to see that you posted the video. I think you are the first person to do so. I am only at about 6500 miles but I ordered the tools anyway. We are hotter than you out here in AZ so glad I won't need to do this til this winter. BTW Beth, when are you coming out this way to ride the Devils Highway? I think we can get a few more riders here to join in the fun.
You made this very easy for me but my secondary clutch was shot. Thank you for all your videos.
Thank you so much for the comment! Ride safe!
Hi Beth.............awesome job on that cvt belt 🙂 thats the thing people shy away from BIG jobs and would rather pay a shop to do the work. At least you learnt abit about your bike. Only found about the ryker the other day, yes I would love one , love the 3 cylinder 900cc engine, I remain impressed Ma,am thank you for your time
Blair, thank you so much for the compliments and for watching!
Great video, thanks Beth
You are so welcome Diane!
Thanks for the video. I'll know what to expect in like a 1000 or so miles.
I'm in the same boat 😆🤣😂
Awesome, happy to help.
Awesome Job as always Beth!. I'm at 6000 miles, but I'm going to order the puller locking tool and pulley adapter so I'm ready when that message comes up. The cost of that belt though-WOW!
That's awesome! Thanks for checking it out!
Awesome video. So glad u made it. I got 800 miles till 12k. So will be doing soon. But like Zia said, it looks like it could have went for a longer distance before changing. Would have been nice to see the old belt closer and compare the 2. Great content as usual. Much appreciated 🙏🏽
Hey Gramp! Thanks for the comment. Here is how I replied to Zia..."What I failed to mention is that the belt wears from the sides not the "teeth". I should have measured the width both to make a fair comparison. AGAIN, I am NOT a mechanic by any means".
Thank you for your videos!
Thank you for watching! I appreciate the compliment.
maybe an option for the belt : put your bike in neutral, (between fwd and reverse) this will free up the upper wheel of the cvt, and while releasing tenssion on the center bolt, you can turn the wheel for the belt to set itself in position (loosen, then rotate, then loosen then rotate...) maybe that could work to... (my2cts)
GREAT advice I wish I had while doing this. Sounds like it would work well!
Word of advice, you should always blow out the secondary & primary clutches with air to remove belt debris. And also take a scotch brite pad with break cleaner and clean inside of the clutches. Then use a rag and wipe them down to clean of the residue. Just some advice, I could see belt dust on the clutches in the video. That’s why I was bringing this to your attention. This makes sure the clutches have a clean surface to grab the belt. Not doing so can cause belt slip over time and damage the belt and the clutches which can get costly if having to replace or rebuild them. And just do a thorough observation of the clutches conditions to make sure nothing is lose or has any chips dents or physical wear. And regarding the belt replacement, you need to always crank the unit after you swap the belt and allow the clutches to engage the belt to rise to the top the secondary clutches.
Blowing out the “teeth” is great advice! Thanks for the tips!
@@RykerRydes love your content. You are very thorough. Keep up the great work! 👍🏾
Just curious. When the motor is idling does the belt just slip until the centrifugal weights tightens the belt or does it have a centrifugal clutch as well? If the belts slips adling is it bad to have it idling for a long time?
@@JayDee-xj9lu no it doesn’t. The primary is not engaged at idle to bite down on the belt. Only during acceleration does the primary engage and begin to bite down on the belt transferring to secondary therefore thru too the transmission to start the movement.
@@Cinccinatti_C3 Ok Thanks. So the primary does both, with a centrifugal clutch and changes the diameter of the pulley . Very clever setup. Normally in a car cvt to change the steel belt is very expensive. The Ryker setup is simple and cheap to fix. I wonder how long the belt could really last. Did you measure the width of the old belt to see how much wear you had.
Wow. Great job!!!
Thank you Steve!
Good job Beth.
Thanks Bloke!
Luv it...you go girl!!!!🤙🤙
Thanks for watching!!
thank you Beth for this video. You are braver than me.
What could go wrong!! Lol
@@RykerRydes I screw it up and have to have it taken to the dealer anyway and it cost me double. Cost for the toll, and cost of the dealership anyway besides my time trying to do it myself.
@@pjfrog10 wait, you tried and then had to get a tow, or that’s what would happen?
Thank you for the videos
Glad you like them!
This Chanel is so helpful 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋
Glad you think so! Thanks so much Jose!!!
super informative 👌
Glad you liked it! I appreciate it.
Looking at your previous video using power tools, I would walk away and think for myself!
I think this is a compliment, but not sure. lol Thanks for watching.
Sort of a weird comment. I think while you are off "thinking" she is doing. But, here again, don't understand your comment, so.....
hard work good job
Thanks Diane!
Hi I did it I don’t have a Ryker yet but next spring I will be putting a deposit on one that I have been looking at
That’s awesome!
Wow thank you very much for your video
You are so welcome Roberto!
Great video. Over my years in industrial maintenance I have worked with many variable speed sheaves. The spring tension is insane so be very careful. We had a new mechanic take one apart even though it had a label that said ware safety glasses and never take apart contents under pressure. Well, it blew apart flew about 12 feet in the air and split his chin open requiring him to get five stitches. Sorry long story great video buy the tools and do it right.
Thanks for sharing! Safety is so important. I appreciate your comment.
Great video Beth! Have you considered making a video showing how to replace the fuel filter?
I am looking into it now. Thanks for watching!!
I just love how you do everything barefoot :D
Lol. Thanks for watching!!
Great video. I would have not had this much patience LOL. Just looking at the belt, I honestly think that the belt can go for 18k miles interval if not more, but I guess we have to go with what Can Am says.
Hey Zia! What I failed to mention is that the belt wears from the sides not the "teeth". I should have measured the width both to make a fair comparison. AGAIN, I am NOT a mechanic by any means.
@@RykerRydes You and me both. LoL
Don't know if this has been mention or not in other comments already but when you put a new belt like this on you need to spin the drive to get the belt to tighten up. Just spin it by hand and that is what tightens it back up after installation so it doesn't have the problem you had. Just thought I would mention that.
I did that and it helped so much!!! It saved me so much regarding research and looking for solutions when the belt would not turn with the wheels.
You get paid good money by TH-cam when you hit a certain amount of hits and I believe you're over those hits so you're doing okay and you benefited quite well Plus Can-Am has got to be in love with you cuz it's free advertisement if they're not paying you to do these videos by now they are very educational down to detail and you're very good and patient at what you do
Thank you so much for your kind words. I wouldn’t exactly say that I get paid “good money”!!!! It pays for my accessories, which in turn keeps my channel going. Ride safe and thanks for watching!
From my experience had my transmission message hit at 11k, waited until 12k miles to actually have belt swapped and I could tell ya I lost some top end speed and overall acceleration. I did have the dealer swap the belt out and I’m pretty sure I could’ve stretched it a few thousand more miles. BRP wants to prevent people from blowing belts out, as it’s a pretty violent scenario and makes a mess inside the belt housing, so better safe than sorry. I really appreciate the video. This transmission is damn near the same as their can am X3 but the Ryker is a oriented weird. Thanks again
Thanks for the comment Vito, much appreciated!
thank you for posting this. I say that because my Ryker has been feeling like it is "pulling" and not full of gusto. It is also good to know What may be causing an issue that way you can tell the dealer/shop what the issue is or do it yourself.
Thanks!
Wow!!! Thank you!!! I really appreciate it! ❤️
You can pull the shifter halfway between drive and reverse and it will put it into neutral.. This will allow you to spin the big pulley and get the belt off easily. Great video!👍
Awesome advice!! Thanks for watching.
Well done with it all Mate the more you do it the easier it becomes :-) just remember if it don't go don't force it
Thanks so much, appreciate you watching!
Great job good to know, having problem with battery keeping charge & was told alternator type actuator is in the motor uuugh😫
Hi Ed, do you have a lot of accessories added to your bike? Speakers?
You’re one tough little girl beth✨ 💪🏻🌹
David did the hard work.
Really?
Thanks! Especially for calling me "little"! lol
hey beth , that part the belt goes over is basically a split pully the more you tighten or loosen it in this case the narrower it gets raising the belt thats what puts the right tension on the belt and causes it to ware the sides .would be interesting to measure the with of the old and new one . job well done !
I have the old belt I just need to buy a caliper. It is on my to do list!
Great how-to video, I will explain why the old one "Looks" to you just as good as the new one. The way the clutch works is it pinches the belt, meaning it gets the grip from the sides of the belt not the face( Inside or out) If you would take measurements on the width of the belt you would see there would be a difference. it also should be worn at an angle on the edge on the inside. When the engine gets enough RPM to engage the clutch the belt will slip a little bit every time you take off. This is what wares down the belt It can even wear divots in the edge of the belt.
If you really want to know how much its worn at your belt change get a caliper and measure the width.
You are 100% right about measuring the width of the belt. I actually mention that in a separate video. Thank you so much for watching and your comment.
Color me impressed. Mine will be due for the change in September, isn't that when you plan to visit? I told Tim that we have a job to do and he said what we. Really Beth I am amazed at your ability to get things done. After we changed out the final drive, I feel like we also can tackle any job.
Hey there Frank! You totally got this. Changing out the belt is nothing for YOU and maybe Tim. lol
Hey Beth. Great to see you getting your hands dirty again. Noticed your back at home property again. Hope all is good with you. Later from the Hot and Humid Smoky Mountains 👏
Yes, thank you! Stay cool!
Thank you Beth I appreciate this video and I subscribed a year ago and always give a thumbs up✨🤪👍🏻
Awesome! Thank you! VERY appreciated!!
Where can I get the adapter from? Haven’t seen it online anywhere
Great video. Very helpful. Do you know how to clear the maintenence message?
No, sorry. Unfortunately you need to bring it to a dealer to clear the code.
Thanks for the vid! I just had my 12,000 maintenance done at 13,500 miles. Dealer did it but I had them skip the belt replacement. I'm going to roll the dice and do it next year...unless it explodes between now and then. 🤣 I will be at 18,000+ miles.
Thanks for watching Jon! Just be careful, you don't want any trouble by pushing out scheduled maintenance.
@@RykerRydes What could go wrong?? 🔥 😜 Kidding! Thanks!
GOOD/WISE decision.
Wtg.....interesting.....u keep a clean bike
Thanks so much. I appreciate you watching!!
I have the same manual and one thing about all the manuals is they are NOT the most accurate. They will get you in the general area but you are going to have to remove a lot more... just make sure you take photos before removing so you know how it went before you took it apart. This also aids in not having everything back together and having to reopen the damn machine because you left a part out. Because I have Can-Am Mavericks the belt swap is pretty easy but I don't change them out until, one, I either shred one or it starts to slip and I drive my Mavericks a lot harder than I do my Ryker. So I'll probably just inspect the belt rather than change it out but a great video for those who just have a Ryker... Great JOB... 👍🏼
GREAT comment Ron and for the suggestions. It is really appreciated and thank you for watching.
@@RykerRydes Lots of photos when doing any job especially when it comes to doing a teardown and replacement or upgrade is always a good idea when and if you are not doing it on a regular basis... The nice thing is the invention of the cellphone now allows for this right on the spot so no need to run and grab the camera once your done you can always delete the photos... 👍🏼
I work on industrial air and I can say I ALWAYS take pictures when I do anything more complex than simple maintenance. Saved my butt more than once.
HOW’s that even work? WITCH CRAFT I SAY!!! 😂 Cool design … again good camera work .. very informative … thank you 😊
Thanks again Mark!
Great video I've learned a lot from your video's and I thank you for that. I do have one question after the installation do you have to reset the computer if so how.. or does it do it on it's own?
Unfortunately, it does not reset automatically. You will need to bring it to a dealership for a quick reset.
All the other Can Am belt changes I watch spin the big wheel at the end to tighten the belt to the pully? You might have to put it in false neutral to spin the Big wheel. Great job preparing us for the unexpected! If you measure the width of the old drive belt you can compare with the belt specs in the manual!
GREAT comment and advice. Thanks for posting and hope it helps others with their belt change.
@@RykerRydes This is exactly what I did to help get the belt off and tighten it. Went very smooth!
Thx I like
Thanks Beth
My pleasure Dale!
Beautiful I'm amazed that you fix everything ❤ Roberto what's the mileage you need to change the belt
All the details are in the video.
You had me worried for a moment Beth. I was watching where you were putting your fingers inside the pulley assembly. Veiwing through the cameras lens looked like you might have broke a finger or at a minimum a busted knuckle. Good job!
Aww thanks for your concern! I got this! lol
Thanks for the video, will this clear the maintenance alert? How do we clear that?
Nope, you’ll need to ask your dealership to reset the code. Takes 5 min.
I love you !
Let’s take it slow….I like you a lot!! Lol
O I think I see a shaft. This thing Is pretty cool.
Hey Bob, I agree, it is pretty interesting seeing how the bike works.
SUPER FANTASTIC job on this video!!!! Makes me think my better half and I can do this together, but since we are more rounder and bigger (and less cute than you) than you do we need longer than a 24 inch piece of wood? Also, seriously though, if we do attempt this project can you send me a copy of your highlighted notes? ❤ you because you're the best❣❣❣
AWWWW thanks Denise!
I'm a subscriber and wanted to know what size torx screws do you need to use for the different parts of the bike thanks
Hmm I don’t have that info at my fingertips. Your manual will have that info, for sure.
Hi Beth, loved the video! I think once the belt is loose you take it off from the bottom first and when you put it back put the top in first than the bottom. My 2 cents!
It is a really tight fight, worth trying anything! lol
Try taking the belt off of the bottom pully frist. Install it on the top pulley first. roll the bike forward before putting it back together. That should word the belt into the proper position. These are only guesses on my part.
Good tips, worth trying. Thanks for watching.
I would save Old Belt considering state of America, you might need it down the road in a few years???
Wow! That's a lot of work every year or two.
Hey Beth I'm back 1 year later-lol. If you remember, when you ordered the pulley adapter from can am, did it come with the locking tool? I'm Just wondering b/c on BRP's site it shows a pic. of the locking tool with the pulley but does not clearly say the pulley is included.
Hmmm, I really don’t remember and things change too. Ps welcome back!!
