Belt drives need to run straight and they must not be too tight or the belt gets destroyed in less than 20 miles. Happened to a friend of mine. Your picture looks alot like my friends kit. Blew up just like yours. RGM sells a twin lollipop gearbox adjuster for controlling the belt to keep it aligned. You adjust the belt so you can twist it with your fingers 90 degrees on one of the runs. You adjust the twin lollipops to steer the belt. They also save a lot of reciprocating weight as opposed to the triplex chain system. Flywheel effect. They are also easier on your gearbox and gears. Once they are set, it a SET & FORGET deal.
Just remember Never too tight. That Aluminum clutch basket expands quite a bit when it heats up.
