Belts......

[jdp1under]

Hey guys just clean up around the shop and I have a bunch of belts from the last few years. I have a few that look good to the eye but how can I check them and know if they are still good! Also whats the best belt for trail riding I have a 03 rx1 with a 151 expert. Im running a new clutch set up oso primary with heavy hitters and a silver secondary with a micro belmont 52-44 helix.

thanks jdp

measure the width with calipers, the closer to a new belt the better. this assumes no cord breakage or other obvious damage. if you have any with a broken cord, toss them in the trash.
