Just purchased a 2009 Ski Doo Summit with the 800cc motor and the 163 track. It has the factory Ski Doo belt on it and the spare belt mounted inside the hood is a Gates Xtreme belt and the part # is 43X4320. I did not get a correct answer from the seller that I felt comfortable with that the belt was right for the model. Is this the correct belt number for my sled? Thanks!!!!

Just right click on the part # and it will bring up belt specifications.
Looking at it the Gates belt is 15mm shorter and 2mm less in width. Which one OEM belt to the next could vary this much, you'll just have to readjust your belt deflection when you go to use it. They both have a 26 degree angle on the belt, so I wouldn't be afraid to use it.
Hope this answers your question.

I am always curious to see how durable the aftermarket belts are performing relative to the stock choices. Stretching, heat wear, miles, etc. Let us know what you think if you get some miles on it.

I've run the gates 50X4395 on my 08 Summit X 800. Not real impressed with them, on my second one because I bought 2. Ran first one about 200-300 miles and it spit a pretty good size section of the outside cord pretty quickly. Second one seems to be holding up better, but I think I am gonna go back to Doo belts.
