I went from stock to performance over night and getting more than 12mph more and the acceleration is huge.im wondering how long to expect my belt to last with the 1500 rpm springs .I get up to 9000 rpms quick and it takes off so fast now im afraid my belt isn't going to last long.its a gates belt and came with the scooter when I bought it so im not sure if its Kevlar or not.molossi has one for performance motors and suppose to be wider for more power.any suggestions will be appreciated

I'm no belt expert, but the Gates Premium, and Bando seem to be the go to brands. I've never heard of Molossi, might be a great belt.....but Gates has been in the game since 1911, so I doubt anyone knows much more than they do about belt construction.
