Bandito,
I went through 3 different belts last time in order to realize the Bando belt sold as the replacement IS NOT the same dimension as the Honda belt made by Bando. I think I tried Gates and another Off brand. None were correct on the width and shreadded within 20mi.
Changing a belt is a nonissue however getting to work on time is important to me. I don't carry enough tools to change it on the road. Save that space for groceries and helmet storage. The Earlandson belt is correct in dimension and at $60. Is 2/3 the cost.
I Know I said "I'm a believer" probably should have gone OEM on the belt, BUT I as frugal as they come. Hope it doesn't bite me.
