What could you sell a unit for to replace a 2017 AXYS chain case model and retain stock gearing shipped to Washington State? You can PM me also.
Call Tom at TKI. I got a tki conversion in just a few days. Im in wa also. 25 top is very close to stock.
I recently installed a TKI belt drive. My sled is a 16 Axys 163 2.6 converted to a 174 3. TKI fits great and gives you tons of gearing options. Great product.
I've had both C3 and TKI. C3 on the IQR, great product but inner splines on top sprocket were well worn after two seasons of riding, I don't think they would have made it another season.
Went with TKI for the AXYS this year when I swapped to '15 2.86 8T drivers. Very pleased with the product and gearing options, tensioner is a work of art. That said, I hit a stump on a landing two weeks ago, I was WFO when the back of my skid hit it. Bent the rails behind the rear scissor. Heard a ratcheting sound from the driveline. Apparently when my track hit it locked up for a second and the resulting torque was transferred to the belt drive, it bent the tensioner pretty good, amazingly the belt held though and I was able to limp it home. Called Tom expecting to shell out $250+ for replacement parts....he took one look at my pics, texted me right back and said "Holy cow. That's a first. You win for the day", followed by a phone call where he adamantly stood behind the product and offered me a complete tensioning unit for $65 shipped. I had it in 2 days. TKI for the win.

dang, now thats some good customer service! Just based on that, If I ever decide to get rid of the stock belt drive I'll go with TKI.
