I know this probably has been discussed before, BUT has anyone got a comparision on the 700 belt verses the HPD belt for the 500 HO???? I have a 700 belt now that I have slipped a little....wondering how the HPD belt holds up to rough agressive riding????

 

The last thread had somebody say that the HPD belt grips great, but "something has to give" -- so you end up replacing your clutches after a year's worth of aggressive riding. I'm in the same boat as you though -- I just don't know which to choose.

 

That was me, and that was my experience. The price of power and speed.

yeah they're pretty though those belts (HPD kevlar),i've ran one
of 1 1/2 season of riding used with proper clutch calibrations and still peak the engine as a new one,but have little less holeshots tough as well,they last LONGER,but keep an eye on belt deflection and clutch shape when running hard,personnaly i don't known about the 700 new belt,the dayco belt seem more saving clutchs life...
