Any particular brand or model you're interested in knowing?

Sorry, it's an 08 XP 800, it think 06 was 90 lbs. See you have an XP what with the belt adjustment and opener on the secondary? Somebody must have been drunk when they engineered that abomination 330AC

Yeah it's 89 foot pounds. Start the sled, engage the clutch and check it again.

I took that plastic piece of crap and threw it away last year sometime I put an updated 2009 adjuster on, the metal kind with the two set screws, it works 100 times better... you can actually change a belt without elevated blood pressure!

the 2010 adjuster is even better for the secondary

i thought the spec was about 80ft/lbs

Nope... here's the page from the service manual....
