Anyone ever had to change a belt on a Rhino? Do they wear bad? I have a 09 700......3700 miles.

If you dont notice it slipping it dont need changing. I changed mine at about 2000 miles. It didnt need it. It very easy to change though.

Dave's right.

Rhino belts are very tough.

I would swap it and keep the stock one as a spare. Cheap insurance against getting stranded due to a broken belt. Let us know how those greaseless weights work. Wink

a man with as much faith in his ride as you've got, I'd keep running that belt. JK

jokes aside, you'll like the greaseless weights. A close friend is running them and his rhino (686) really picked up when he installed them.
