| I can never understand the reluctance to use main dealerships, I bought my Silver Wing new from a Honda dealership in West Yorkshire. When the belt needed changing I used York Suzuki only a couple of miles from my home and totally trustworthy. They ordered in the OE Honda belt and arranged a fitting time in the workshop after it arrived, the belt change done by experienced and qualified techies with all the skills and tools to do the job quickly.
I dropped the scooter off, wandered into York for a bacon sarnie and a coffee, and leisurely walked back later when I got the call it was ready. I don't remember it being excessively expensive either.

| I got my last one from Wemoto, they are excellent to deal with and do a quick delivery. I've had a JT kevlar one fitted for nearly 16,000 miles and had no issues and have just ordered another one, they do the oe honda belts too. |

| I'm suspicious of belts marketed as having Kevlar in, a 'special' feature. I have always been led to believe that the official OEM belts have Kevlar in because that's how belts are made.
OEM for me. |

| I have JT kevlar drive belts on my Honda Silverwing and my Burgman 400. Both replaced at the time of purchase, 2yrs for the Burgman. 1 year for the Silverwing, and going strong. Just over 5k on the Burgman and 1.5k on the Silverwing, I do tend to ride aggressively, no signs of wear or excessive dusting on either last time I looked. Hope this helps.
