Drive Belt P250
« on: May 25, 2010, 09:43:15 PM »
I now have a shreded drive belt and wondered if anyone had one in stock.  I know dealers read this forum.  PM me a price and lead time.

I also need a CVT gasket and the drift pins for frint brake clippers but these are not stock items.

NO... mine failed while I was going 80 MPH, in the left lane of the junction of US 80 and Highway 5, the roadway was 6 lanes wide at that point.  I ended up in the center divide.  A sports bike rider stopped and I called for a AAA tow.

I make it home safe.  I did need to move a garage door opener (with the 8 foot bar still attached) out of the way of the tow truck.

I had about 10,000 KM on the belt but I did some damage to the belt when I incorrectly installed my sliders. I have not checked the casing for additional damage.

As referenced in the other post, the belt exploded.  You can see my Picasa album with all the sots of my belt change.

Belt Fluff:

I was told that I could expect 15-20 megameters out of mine, and to start thinking about replacing at 15Mm.

I just replaced mine at 17.3Mm. Before the Great Entanglement. Which, IMO, is best.

..oh, it's best alright...

..one belt that my scoot exploded wound itself so tight in the clutch, that it actually de-formed the torque driver pulley...
