***UPDATE***
I finally got it all repaired! I did all of the work myself and it cost about $1000 to replace both sheaves, seals , and belt. I installed a HunterWorks primary sheave and it made a huge difference! I also installed an Alba Racing belt temperature gauge so I can keep an eye on it.
I'm not happy about Yamaha deceiving people with their "10 Year Belt Warranty" claim because it is a complete farce.
Sure, they may have provided a new belt at no cost but then charged for all the parts that were directly damaged by the belt failing which makes no sense at all. Not to mention the wait time to get it done and they also told me I would need to remove my stereo and wiring and the rear window before bringing it in.
Yamaha should give me a new machine for my upcoming birthday since I have been a loyal Yamaha fan/rider/driver since the mid 70's and this belt issue has really let me down...
