My fan belt broke (MITSUBISHI BELT 59011-2056) on my 2005 Conquest and I?m simply wondering how best to access to replace? I?ve searched all over but can?t find any resources. Thanks in advance.

What engine?
What it lacks in ground clearance it makes up for with traction.
I have replaced the stator on one years ago and removed the radiator. Shop manuals are available on line that will walk you through most of those types of repair.

Thanks!
Thank you!
It’s been a long time but going off my bad memory I had to remove a radiator bracket and snake it in. I do know you need the exact Mitsubishi belt since there’s no adjustment. Tried a different brand with the crossover number and it was too loose.

Thanks @tbone9! Sorry for the delay. Taking the radiator out and snaking it in was the play. Was pretty smooth sailing once I removed the rubber dampener.
It’s been a couple of months since I replaced the v-belt but it just broke again yesterday. Obviously that shouldn’t be happening after only a couple of hours tops of riding. Anyone have any ideas as to what might be causing this?
Thanks!
i'm not a argo owner ...but is it possible out of alignment ( clutches ? ) jb
Like John said check alignment with a straight edge. Are the pulleys loose? Are they worn, sharp edges? Do they turn free?

Thank you! I will take a look and report back. Unfortunately won’t be for a couple of weeks as I have left the camp.
