Hi, I just got a 2010 Uly couple of months ago and have already put ~2,000 miles on it commuting, so I'm thinking I need to have a spare drive belt with me.

Anyone know for sure if this belt from amazon will fit a 2010 Ulysses? I know some reviewers has said it does, but I just want to be sure.

Thanks.

Thanks for the link! I've actually searched for it but I'm still getting a hang of navigating this website. So far I've found part numbers from HD for the belt but not exact specifications.

I would order the belt from American Sport Bike. Al will get you the right one. I don't think you want to use that belt. I could be wrong but don't think it will play well with the tensioner on the XB bending it from the back side.

I clicked the amazon link and in red it says this does not fit my 2006 Ulysses.
Though the specs are correct according to my previous research into the subject.
That said; you cannot go wrong with a drive belt, procured from Al @ American Sport Bike.

The belt you need for a Uly is HD part number G0500.1AKF. This is the last version and the best.

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BUY ANYTHING ELSE.

Or at least that is my advice.

Cut some slack in the tensioner for the new belt.

Hey Uly_man,
You still getting around 7500 miles before the belt breaks?
