I think I will try that belt next time as my original Yamaha stock belt lasted 34000klm before it broke last year and the last stock belt lasted 21000klm. Needed belt right away so had to go stock as shops had NO alternate belt here in Canada. Finally had to replace both pulleys as they were worn on front pulley which with two shops putting belts on too tight wore down front pulley. Cost of stock belt was $375can and pulleys were front $145can and back was $500can labor was $500can(but got new one from U.S. on e-bay for $220can.) Never beat on bike! Seems all deals are in U.S. but shipping kills!Hopefully this belt outlasts last two or wife will get me to sell and go back to shaft drive Venture.Next time will change myself as dealers charge from $80 to $95can.
WHAAAT!!!!!
95 dollars an hour and they charged 500 for labour!
were they doing it blindfold by some chance?
2 hours tops for both pulleys and a belt, and thatīs including a beer and smoke brake.
S.O.Bīs

What's the life spam of a belt? I don't want to get caught in the wilderness with wild bears and have my belt break 
Seriously, I like to do preventive measures before I get stuck some where in BFE with my bike. |

I think there are too many variables to answer that...
