Well....I did what I said I'd never do. I have never strayed away from a Polaris belt in the past, but for the price, I had to try one.
Polaris dealer wants $98 for a 1075 belt. I picked up a Carlisle Ultimax III for $80. I measured them up and can't find any distinguishable difference. Belt width is pretty much identical. Belt length does not appear any different either. When I installed it in the clutch I did not have to change secondary height either in comparison to a new Polaris 1075 belt either.
You can tell by feel that the Ultimax is a harder compound than the Polaris. I have never run one before and it is currently sitting on my clutch gaurd as a spare since my current belt does not require changing at this time.
Just wondering what to expect when I do end up running it.....longer break in, less RPMS? etc...etc..
