08 RMK Belt ?

[S.Diddy]

I have an 08 RMK 600 which I've always used a 3211115 belt on and today when I went to get a new belt the dealer was out of those and told me he had a cheap $80 one. I said no thanks I want the more expensive one and he said he had the 3211111 and it's like the same thing. So I was just about to put it on and noticed that they look waaayyyy different. Does anyone know if this belt will work ok or should /i return it and get the 3211115?

111 belt

I think the 111 belt is a belt Polaris made to hold up better for the 900's because guys were blowing the 1080 belts.

So I would think your shimmed for the 115 and not the 111. Might be off a slight bit.

uhhhmmm.... the 111 is a different belt... 080 and 115's are the same dimensions, different durometer. 115 holds up longer, costs twice as much.

I cant believe it, that shop sold me that thing for the same price as the really expensive 115 belt! Im just gonna hold off and wait till I can get my hands on a 115 belt.

he gave you the wrong belt most likely. polaris makes a belt p/n 3211122 which is almost identical to the 115 but 70 bucks cheaper. so far i cant tell a difference. have had one on my turbo sled for 400 miles.

I just ordered the 115 belt from Babbitts online, $148 + shipping. Took a week to get here.

WOW,those poo belts are spendy.is it gold plated?

the 1115 and the 1080 are not the same shape can not spell dimensions sorry
but the 1080 is junk compared to the 1115. i dont know about the other but the 1115 lasted me 1000 miles and the 1080 about 200

Ouch!

Yeah my 1115 belt has lasted me 1860 mi thus far and is still in decent shape but Im not pulling the rpm's I used to cause it is kinda worn.

I just blew my 111 belt after 1000 miles, my last 111 belt lasted 1500 miles. I think I want to try the 115 belt but what do I have to do to make it fit? I heard you have to shim the clutch? what is this 1122 belt that is $70 bucks cheaper? is it better than the 111 belt. can anyone give me some prices on these 3 belts?

On a 600... IMO.. the 115 belt is WAY overkill..

The 122 belt would be a great one to run for less money...

I'd say run the 080 belt... but you MIGHT have to change some clutching as it is a softer belt and is a bit tackier... They ran those on the 06 600's and had zero issues with them.

Super Dave3.... any thoughts on this one??
