    I used to worry about breaking them in but found out no matter how much you break it in, if you get it hot, it's gonna fry. I just carry a spare and worry about having fun instead.

    I broke my new belt in at UTV Invasion utilizing the real time information provided by my new Razorback Technology Infrared belt temp gauge. Wanted to do it right since we are heading to Mackay ID and St. Anthony next week. Heat cycled it up to 145 deg. for the first 20 miles. Waited 30 miles before going for higher temps and full throttle runs.

    I haven't broke a belt yet, but sometimes when going slow technical I can smell the belt getting hot, or smoking. In the 1500 miles on my machine I've takin the cover off and blew out all the dust in there three times, and every time it's been packed with dust.
