    i had the same prolem as david. my belt fell off 3 or 4 times. the marks were still in the specifications range. i took off the belt, and turned the tensioner pulley. it made noise and didnt feel smooth. i went and bought a new one and havent had a problem. it didnt seem horrible but it was enough to cause the belt to jump and finally fall off. i just got a stock replacement from local parts store.
    Won't be driving it for another 4 months, gonna end up putting the Katech tensioner on it.. I started it last week after I finished the battery relocation, belt was nice and straight, but of course didn't do any high revs... I think it happened that night we were out cruisin, cause I beat the piss out of it.. lol
