For what? I didn't hear of any belt issues last year?  

It's at least as durable as your previous procross chain case abomination.  And I'd say more durable just because there's no pos tensioner.  And again, lighter, simpler, easier access of service.  No downsides I see to belt drive except maybe if you're a big time freedom sledder tuna there aren't gearing options yet to chase your tenths of a mph on your 600 across the lake.  Oh no.

believe it or don't believe it, makes no difference to me but it's happening.

Lol what is happening?  You still haven't said anything.  I'm on the various catalyst groups and honestly have not seen one belt failure.  Not saying there hasn't been one, but there's no fundamental issue.  Aftermarket will always make the latest and greatest fix products, look at thunder, that's how they stay in business.  Where are all these issues you're the master internet researcher you should have them at the ready?  

How many cvt belts have blown compared to drive belts?  10x?  100x?  Better scrap the cvt?  How many procross chain cases blew up last year?  Keep reading bud.

For consumers I see the belt drive as a big win. Near zero maintenance and lightweight.

 

I could see in some racing applications it not being an ideal setup. I wonder if we will see the belt drive abandoned in those racing disciplines in favor of a traditional chaincase? Or perhaps a different belt drive design with a different tension adjustment system?

Looks like they spent way more on marketing, and racing in 1970, than they are today....

5 bucks would be more than they spend now. I see the 600s are making it to dealers already. Must have run out of people that will buy the dirt line

The 2025 catalyst are shipping. An area dealer posted one for sale that arrived today. It is a green 137 Sno pro 600

did you go look at the shocks? if they're worth the cost (cheap from my recollection) that might be an affordable worthwhile upgrade for yours without buying RXC units.  

saw your text but was eyeballs deep at the moment... 9_9

no. It’s 100 miles and in a crate. I am not that ambitious. I might finally wash all the salt off mine if it is decent this weekend and possibly pull the skid. It needs hyfax and I am sure there are a few bad wheels in it

Mosquitoes are out in force today. They haven’t been bad until today. I almost got carried away by a pack of them. I should mow my lawn but that would involve buying a lawn mower
