| My 08 RZR drive belt whines pretty loud. Is this a sign of wear? Or is it not tracking right? Also What belt do you recommend for replacing the drive belt. I see there are a couple differant ones to choose from. Thanks Mojo | |

| Noticed it on our last ride. The last day of the last ride to be exact. Seems like it isnt slipping. Just whining the faster you go the louder it gets. I haven't taken the cover off and looked at the belt yet. I thought I would check with you guys about what kind of belt to get if i need one. | |

| Well this is funny. I bought mine used and it has made that noise form day one. I only hear it when I am cruising over 20 mph. I thought it was normal for an 08.
I put over 1300 miles on my belt before it went boom! I had an S belt and I think it is to wide for a standard RZR pre 2011. I put a stock RZR belt back in. We will see how it does. | |

| Does it chirp during deceleration? If it doesnt its probably the two way bearing on the primary. As far as belts go, I have a S and I had my belt come apart at 1230 miles. I went with a Carlisle that last up to a lil over 2000...so I would go with the OEM and most say its the best way to go.

| I replaced with a Dayco Extreme Duty. Bought it off Amazon.com or E-Bay. My original was slipping from day one. I thought it was just a sluggish machine. It will pull the front tires now. | |
