Here's a picture of a guy's Tmax in Italy that shortened them the same amount as I did...but with a bit LESS engineering, structurally...

Show's how it looks with a different screen than my WIDE AirFlo..

It is cracking and need to be replaced and whilst I was there I fitted a new set of Dr \Pulley sliding variator weights but will annoyingly have to strip it all back down again to fit a new belt. Ho hum. I checked a few other things and its clearly due a service and in all my years of servicing bikes and cars this is one of, if not the, filthiest air filters I've come across.

Well I fitted all the parts at the weekend and rode the bike today. I have no idea whats happened but its like a different bike? Quicker revving and has much more punch. Thing is I MIC'd up the old belt and there was little in it to the new one. Maybe its stiffer and doesnt compress and that affects the gearing? OR maybe the FI has been able to work much, much better with a air filter that is actually flowing air? I really dont know why but its like riding a different bike!
