Iv put a Doppler S3R exhaust and 4g rollers on my stock 55plate BWS. I can smell rubber burning every time i stop after 15 minutes of riding. Is it my drive belt?if not what?

it shouldnt be. i cant imagine that it would be. pull the tranny cover and se if the clutch bell is turning blue. or if the rollers are flat. I've slipped my belt pretty bad and it never smelt like burned rubber. sure nothing is touchin the exhaust? maybe an electrial short?

pretty hard to diagnose over the internet

belt may be slipping. Do you have any symptoms at WOT? If its the original stock one, then it probably is. I would replace it with an athena, bando, or OEM. Stay clear of Kevlar.
