So I have had this issue for awhile, been riding with it for about a year, awaiting the day that it would come back to bite me. That day hasn't arrived but I want to deal with this once and for all.

The symptom:
1) When the bike is WARM, if I am rolling forward faster than 10MPH, if the bike is in Neutral or I pull the clutch in, there is a constant squeal coming from the left side, sounds like it is coming from within the area where the belt goes into the covered compartment of the engine...
