Where does the belt go when you chew it up on a Can Am 800?

When you decide to go through 3 and a half feet of water for 650 meters in HIGH GEAR where does the rest of the belt go when you shred it? Well I found out. It will glue it self firmly into and on to the one way bearing assy in the primary clutch causing it not to move. I had to beat the the old sping cup to death to get it apart. I discovered this when I couldn't get the new belt on(primary was not moving far enough) which would explain why I had a heck of a time getting it out and in to gear. Makes for loading a quad onto a deck very interesting to say the least. Note to self put the freaking thing into low gear when going through water! On a side note what was left of the belt did get us out of the woods even though there was 2/3 of the belt left!

It is a pain in the butt to get that sucker apart, tell your buddy to watch when he pulls his primary to not loose the cups or springs they take off in a heartbeat.
