      I don’t have that bike anymore. I ran it for a little over 1000 miles with no issues. I would have preferred a drag specialties belt but couldn’t beat the overnight shipping on the Amazon one.

    I broke mine luckily only 2 miles from home. Had to push it back since I forgot my phone. That was fun up hills.

    How u determine the size of belt, mine is a 89 that was converted to belt when they did the 1200 conversion im hoping once belt is off I can find a number or count teeth as last resort

      what about now? Probably the same given the winter season. Same thing happened to me at work, went to leave and it wouldnt move. I was confused, co-worker seen my belt. Bought a gates one. The whole was good timing tho. Just had a buddy paint my tank and fenders. The paint is the exact match to my 2017 ram 1500 sport copperhead edition. Looks alot like a burnt orange. May favorite color. Enjoyed you video. Thanks a ton.@@twinsmotogarage1866

    How long did the belt last? All i see is horrible reviews for the Amazon belts. Love the price but I need something that will last

      Close to 1000 miles on it now. It’s still holding up. I would definitely prefer drags specialties though.

    Don't use the cheap pos Amazon belt. Spend the extra cash and get as close to OEM as you can.

      Yeah that would be ideal but the Amazon one was a third of the price and arrived basically next day. We put 1000 miles on it with no issue.

      @@RCnAZ-y3z I’m not disagreeing that an OEM belt would be ideal over Amazon but to be clear… you installed a new Amazon belt, properly set and maintained the correct tension and it broke?
