Can Am Commander Belt Change

Today I changed the belt on my Commander.

I decided to put a new one on after I smoked it pretty good at the fall ride. I thought it was going to look like junk when it came out. It sure does look good. Notice where I am holding the belt, there is a groove worn in. Thats where is spun and made all the smoke.

This belt is hardly worn. Oh well. I guess I have a nice backup. I took an upclose pic of where it spun on the belt.

Your right Tbone...that belt will make a good spare...

You did the right thing....better to be safe than sorry...THAT'S THE TRUTH!!

Good job T-bone...

good job tbone !

Tbone, I was right behind your smoke screen but couldnt really tell what happened. Why dont you tell the sorry?? Was it drive error or the machine??

darn, cant say anything about that. spoilsport!

I'm going to replace mine pretty soon when I hit 2000 miles whether it needs it or not. I figure it will be good practice, plus I will have the original for a spare.



Tbone, you did the right thing. No reason to take a chance on it after that.

what kind of belts are you guys putting in your commanders? I need to replace the on in my commander but not sure if i should go with stock or maybe a EPI belt.

stock belts are the best for commander.

i have heard some talk about people putting the maverick belt in the commanders is there any truth to this, the say the maverick belt is tuffer. i dont know and have never heard it personally.

that belt is done t-bone

 
 James now he won't have any excuses when you smoke his ass in WV!

if he tries to keep up with me he will need some parts when he get home 

 

Can ams don't brake parts. EH

I just replace the belt on my x I put a maverick belt on it . I was told that it's the same belt but better .
