what belt to run?

[wald]

i have a 080 belt on my sled now and i am wondering if i should stick with that belt or go with the 115 belt if i go with the 115 belt will i have to change anything with the clutches? is the width of the 115 the same as the 080?

thanks,
Jason

not sure what sled you have but the belt specs are different
i only run 115 and 080 as a spare

I'd stick with the 115 because on the 080 I kept pulling out the cords on the sides of them. The worst thing for a 900 crank is to blow a belt.

Yes you should have your clutch shimmed for the 115. I never did and it left a fine wear line low in the sheaves of my old clutch.

Shimmed or not the 115 will wear the clutch sheaves. It's the nature of the belt.
