Yamahas don't have an idler bearing on the primary clutch, so a little drag of the belt on the primary is normal. If it's suddenly gotten "jerky", look closely at that primary clutch - is it opening fully at rest? Normally worn fingers inside the clutch will cause that, but since yours is so new it may just be dirt / mud or whatever gumming it up. Open the clutch cover and see what you can see inside.
