So there is enough give in the plastic eh? How many people out there ever had to change a belt in the bush? Im gonna guess that was beating on it pretty good.

It does happen, I have a ride buddy that has went thru several. He is all about the clutch belts, trying different after-market, buying extra spares. As for me it hasn't happened yet, and I do need a spare! ($90 for the OEM I think?)

Regards,

Yeah the belt I just bought was about $87, and the old belt wasn't terrible so Im keeping it as a spare in the box for now.

The belts last for 2000 miles pretty easily, We had only one ATV blow a belt but we towed him home the bugs were just to bad to want to deal with it on the the trail.LOL

I carry a extra belt on my sled because they take only 5 min change with no belt cover to deal with and belts are under more tress with a 100+ hp sled vs lower power and reving ATVs I would think.

Not to many sleds come with a low range to help out on slow to a crawl trails either.
