How many miles do you run your CVT belt?
« on: January 22, 2021, 10:03:44 PM »
Just wondering how many miles do you run your CVT belt before you change it?
In parts 200S and Grand Vista and my motorcycles 2 CS BMW'S and one GS BMW.

Sold-32 Kymco scooters of various sizes this summer.

Followed the book on my 150 Liberty  - at 6,000 miles.
LIKE200i gets a new belt at @ every 4,000 miles.

I use only Kymco and Piaggio belts.

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

I follow bike maker's recommendation----use OEM belt---only had one belt break in over 400,000 miles....that time when I was stopped---Helix....easy to change belt on them   I always carry spare belt as dealers never seem to have them in stock.
