s8 belt
« on: July 09, 2012, 03:04:19 AM »
Gonna change belt soon for for Super 8 125cc.  What's a good brand and size other than stock. I don't want to experiment anymore if any of you guys have some recommendations/experiences with other belts. No kevlars please. TIA. 

Scoot safe!!!

Stock belt is Bando 23100 KEC4 9000, but it seems short, because there's still a lot of drive face that never contacts the belt.

I tried a 821 20 30, but it was too long and flapped around.

I'm getting a 815 20 30 which will be 6mm shorter, so we'll see if that works, for $15.

I think the stock belt may be 803 19.5 28, which is short and shallow, but those belts are about $50 from Carlos at autotech355 in Taiwan.

Contact him on ebay, he'll sort you out.
