had a belt go today

[turbonium]

I was riding today with a buddy on an xp and his belt grenaded. Figured i better take a look at my belt and low and behold there was a BIG chunk of string sticking out of it.

Currently have about 400 miles on sled. Threw my old race belt from my 09 d8t that only had about 100 miles on it and the sled ripped!

Not sure if it was because my belt was effecting performance or if the race belt is that much better?


How are belts holding up for everyone else?

I pulled my clutch last night, cleaned it and inspected the belt. Looks good. 250 miles.

I have a couple of the race belts left laying around the shop from the grass drag days... These belts are soft and designed for short hard bursts, they get hot quick and loose performance over a long run. Don't use them in the steep and deep to long, they will blow hard!

Just had my "15" belt grenade this weekend. Had 1500 miles on er. Does anyone know how many miles people are getting on the "15"?

Are you disappointed at 1500 miles? That's like saying you tires went flat at 75000 miles.. I think you got your money out of that one, mine become spares after about 900
