Just a question.
Why do you guys think that Yamaha didnt put the spare belt holder there to begin with?
It doesnt make sense, as they have alway been there.
If there is room apparently, why stuff it in the front of the sled?
Just seems strange.

Another Idea
Or you cut two slots and use a velcro strap ( arctic cat idea ) instead of a metal clip.
But your right, wonder why they didn't put it there in the first palce.???

Isn't that two questions?

I like it...good job. It provides an option...not that the bag is a bad thing, it is just another option.

I did ask twice as many questions as I was going to!
That must mean I have only had 4 beers tonight!

Not really sure why they wouldn't use this location to be honest, perhapse just another method of weight savings???
I see no problem with it what so ever, other then possibly the belt degrading over time from engine heat MAYBE?? <<<<<<<<<<<<<and thats a big maybe.

Yes... this is what I'm going to do.. dunno why Yamaha wouldn't have done this in the first place? 

Maybe it can interfer with the air flow that is supposed to go trough the radiator and out the vents in front of your knees. (longshot)

I agree with the airflow theory or something similar. Very odd that Yami didnt designate a place for a spare belt......EsonPZ said:Maybe it can interfer with the air flow that is supposed to go trough the radiator and out the vents in front of your knees. (longshot)

Agree as well took a second look at this and to be honest, it would interfear VERY little if at all.

They did designate a place for the spare belt, the front tool pouch. Most guys don't want to fold it up to put it in there though.
By making the pouch a little bigger, they saved on 2 rivets, one belt holder and die complexity for the FX clutch cover. It may not be much on a per sled basis but over the entire run........never mind they don't need anyone to sub-assemble the clutch cover belt clip.
Can you tell I work on an assembly line???
