Belt Advice

[Mark's RMK]

I'm going to buy a new belt for my 800 RMK. Looks like I can pick from the 3211080, 3211122, or the 3211115.

Anyone have any advice? The 3211122 looks like a better belt than the 2111080 and it's not as expensive as the 1115.

So far I have mostly used used belts picked up at swap meets but I have a nice new drive clutch so I thought it would be best to match it to a new belt.

I use the gates 44x4640, hold up well on my 600's, haven't tried it on the 800 but its alot easier on the clutches. www.royalsupply.com for about 43 dollars or you can have napa order it for 70 and have a place to return it.

I'd go with Carlisle Ultimax. I've run the same belt for two years without any problems. The Polaris belts just don't hold up in my opinion, at least not on my 04 800 RMK. I believe the Carlisle belts have a warranty as well.

Belts

So the Carlisle XS809?

Yeah. I just have the regular one but if I was gonna buy another it would be the XS.

Without a doubt the 115, they hold up very well, have never blown one, pricey but...you can't afford to blow a belt with the weak 800 cranks.
