I was just thinking the same thing the other day and did a quick search, but did not find anything.

I believe they are talking about the quick drive belt, not the CVT belt.

I put this on my sled this year, and for the price you CANNOT beat this setup.
I geared my stock 13 Pro sled down 2 ratios, and its now a beast!
Belts are tougher and 1/3 the price of stock belts..
It bolts right on and you can take it off when you sell the sled..

Whole package $699...

Getting this when if i blow my factory belt and no replacement on warranty.

By the time you buy 2 belts and install tools might as well get this kit and the benefits of a different gear ratio

Do you happen to have actual temp number differences from before and after? Or just from general feel/touching? Thanks. Always looking for ways to get longer belt life...

I pit the c3 kit on. Geared down a bit. Tracks turns easily compared to stock. And after hard ride now I can put my hand on the pullies and belt. So far great

Running the c3 belt drive. Did it to gear 163 pro down works great way. Better drive belt life clutch belt temps are down. I know this because they are lasting way longer.

Not many stock Quick Drive belts are breaking, they are simply stripping off the teeth. These aftermarket drives have at least 50% more contact on the top pulley compared to stock. This spreads out the forces and the belts will take much more abuse because of this, the gearing and the tensioner. Belts are 1/2 price too.
