I picked up a new belt for my Uly but it has the slits on the outside of it like most HD belt drive belts. Has anyone used one these on a Uly and is it noisy? Or will it even work correctly? |

That doesn't sound right. Where'd you get the belt? Brand/part number? |

Sounds like you got a Gates belt for a Softail instead of Goodyear belt for a Buell. |

Yep you got the wrong belt. The right belt will have part number G0500.1AKx on it |

Harley belts won't work, they are not designed to bend backwards over our tensioners. Someone tried a Sportster belt on the XB as it was the same tooth count, he didn't get far down the street before it snapped. |

PM sent, I see you use Hotmail, I know their spam filter is aggressive and likely to flag my message as spam or flatout delete it, so if you don't get it just give me a buzz. |
