850 Belt Life

Hi folks,

I wanted to get some opinions on belt life on the 850 Assaults. I know there is no "normal"expected life of a belt because of rider operation, but I wanted to see what riders are getting out of them?

I have a customer that got 2500 kilometers on his first belt on apparent normal trail riding, and he wasnt too happy about it. To me, that seems to be a fairly good life for a belt and Polaris thinks the same (if riding under normal conditions with occasional fun:face-icon-small-hap)

Thanks in advance,

You get twice the life on them if they are geared down 20%. The Quickdrive v.s Chain drive or aftermarket belt drive.
