Anybody use or recommend the Gates carbon belt? Lots cheaper than Polaris.

Thanks.

Only got 100 miles on a new one after a clutch rebuild on my Turbo Switchback. Not much of a test yet, but so far, so good. Have heard good reports from several.

I think everyone in this topic is aware of what to do as you listed. But the OP was referring to an 1115 replacement belt for the 800s. And at $185 vs $125 for me in Canada. I will stick with the Gates belt from now on. :bc:

Well we are in the INDY forum which is model Year 2014-2016 for the 800s. Did you really think I was referring to an XCR 800?
And yes I said ALL 800s from 2009-2015...which they are all CFIs. I didn't state the AXYS, Damn!

You tell me because you are the one saying there's a Polaris 800 from 2009-2016, other than the AXYS, that comes from the factory with a belt other than the 1115???
Like I said, enlighten me cause maybe I am unaware and would like to know so I can pass that info onto someone else if this topic ever comes up again?
