Timbersled Belt Drive

[RACINSTATION]

TKI says it is OK to release the info:

Belt drive available for all Timbersled kits now. We got some limited testing late in the season with good results. Easy to install and typical TKI quality. PM me if you have questions.

Price of kit? Price of belts, available for this year I'm assuming. Ive ruined 3 chaincase chains over the years.maintain a similar or same gear ratio? Belt drive intrigues me. Ive ridden the cmx and thought the belt drive on it worked awesome.

Chains are less efficient, strech, more rotating mass, require lubrication

What is awesome about them? What are the attributes you like?

We are finalizing the pricing over the next few weeks. We will start shipping the week after Haydays.

The advantages will be weight and durability. There will be two different kits....1 for 11-15 models and one for 16-17 models.

We are prebooking orders at this time, they should be readily available so no used car salesman trying to say buy now, or you will miss out, but it will be first come-first serve on the initial orders.

Meaning better response? faster track speed....

Definitely interested to get one Timbersled set up this year to try this out...

Looking for install instructions to see what involved... and judge how easy it is to go back and forth between setups...
- What holes need to be blocked...
- Any new holes needed!!! hope not
- other Mods.. etc

In short... I really need to know how easy it is to revert back if needed....


Longer term I would mod all my Timbersleds if it works well.

Please post link to order once your ready..

So what's the advantage ? Less maintence ?
Rolling resistance ? Less weight ?

 

[KAWGRN]

Less rolling resistance ,,more HP to the track,

 

[Niseko]

This still happening?

 

[RACINSTATION]

Yes. Tom was super busy getting parts ready for hay days. We are going to get a couple items tested a bit more when we first get snow and then start shipping.

[Snowman269]

I'm interested. Does it fit under the stock cheesy plastic cover?

 

[slickace15]

Price and availability....

Seeing what the price is for a 2016 st belt kit and when you are excepting to ship them. What is price of replacement or spare belts? Thanks for your time...
