Gates 49C4266 Carbon Belt

**TRS** · #1 03-11-2015, 11:53 AM

We have been running a Gates 49C4266 Carbon belt on the 2015 Ski-Doo 174 and 163 for the last week. Switching it out between sleds, big improvement here as well. You don't see the black clutches associated with the Doo belt. It hooks hard.
Here is a picture of the primary clutch with a stock ....391 belt and I will add a picture of a clutch after running the Carbon belt.
The boys are dumping their Doo belts and buying the Gates Carbon.

After running the Gates belt, we didn't clean the clutch before installing the Gates Carbon belt.

Price? Warranty?

1 year (warranty registration is in the belt sheath) and around $90 from Dobeck Performance.

Any difference in rpm switching between the two belts?

Carbon belt was +150 RPM on the Doo.

That is about what I've seen as well, as well as some friends that are using as well.

Plus the RPM stays LOTS more constant on long pulls. Or steep trees sidehills and such.

250 hard mountain miles on my 49C and it did this. I'll stick with the Doo 288 belt.

My Questionn is will it eat the clutch sheaths? Carbon fibre has the habit to be hard on ecuipment if you ever worked with the stuff you will know.
