Title: Savage Belt Life
Post by youzguyz on 05/13/11 at 03:55:08

Well.. I finally figured out how long a belt lasts on a hard ridden, gone through a bunch of dirt, ride all the time, Savage.
78,500 miles. :(

Break was clean. Not caused by a rock or anything like that.
Just replaced the rear tire too. (Tensioners were not moved during that event, belt tension was checked when done using 90 degree twist method)

I'll post pics if I remember.

So, now you know how long they last.

And now I could use one!! ;)
See the market place. Thanks! :D

Nice :)
A chain would not have lasted that long :)

a snapped chain couldve been snapped back together in 5 minutes with a clip link. Now the poor guy's gotta wait. I gotta belt with a small tear in the side of it. I assume from a rock. I went chain. Belt had about 14k mi on it before i ditched it. $15 and shipping says its yours.
