maybe im just worrying about nothing but, ive noticed that the belt used to be a few mm away from the edge of the rear pulley, but over the last week or 2 its become 1 or 2 mm over the edge of the belt. is this really a problem, or am i just worrying about nothing?

Which direction is the bike going before you check? Try it both ways...

well i reverse it to park it but only about 6 foot at the most, what difference would direction make?

Because the sprockets are not perfectly aligned, you will see that the belt tracks to one side when you roll the bike forwards and the other side when you roll it back

Try it and see. ;)

If there is any misalignment or tension, then this might become apparent by the belt lining up slightly differently, depending on the direction of travel.

Nate obviously never pushes his bike backwards. :D
