Tunnel Stud Protection System for a Snowmobile
A snowmobile tunnel stop protection system to provide protection to a tunnel from a studded endless track used on a snowmobile. The tunnel includes at least one slot formed into an undersurface of the tunnel. At least one protection rail extends from a first end to a second end and includes a plurality of holes passing through the protection rail. A plurality of fasteners are used to attach the protection rail to the tunnel where each fastener has a first fastener portion that passes through the at least one slot. Each fastener includes the first fastener portion that passes through one of the plurality of holes and a second fastener portion that couples to the corresponding first fastener portion to couple the protection rail to the slot formed in the tunnel.
SADDLE RIDING VEHICLE
In a saddle riding vehicle including: a swing arm that supports a rear wheel; a sprocket disposed at the rear wheel; and a chain that meshes with the sprocket to thereby drive the rear wheel, the rear wheel includes a rear wheel-side protruding portion that protrudes from the sprocket to an outside in a vehicle width direction, a chain cover fastening portion, to which a chain cover for covering the chain is fastened, is disposed on the outside in the vehicle width direction with respect to the rear wheel-side protruding portion and protrudes to an inside in the vehicle width direction, and the chain cover fastening portion is disposed at a position at which the chain cover fastening portion overlaps the rear wheel-side protruding portion in a vehicle side view.

ADJUSTABLE BELT DRIVE ASSEMBLY, SYSTEM AND METHOD
An all-terrain vehicle includes a chassis, an engine, and a ground engagement member. The vehicle features a drivetrain that operatively connects the engine to the ground engagement member to deliver propulsive power. The drivetrain comprises a first shaft with a first bearing housed in a fixed bearing retainer and a second shaft with a second bearing housed in a rotatable eccentric bearing retainer. The center of the second bearing is offset from the center of the eccentric bearing retainer, allowing for the adjustment of the distance between the first and second shafts by rotating the eccentric bearing retainer. This configuration enables precise control over the drivetrain alignment, enhancing the vehicle's adaptability to various terrain.
