That a great spot not gonna wear anything but might leave some small scratches. You could always zip tie small rubber spacer and then the belt
Took your advise. Thanks!

I put the belt along with the tool kit in that little bag that came with the sled behind the seat. I then use a Doo tunnel bag over it for my other stuff. I know the bag says SkiDoo on it but aren't we all going "Ski Dooing" anyway?

I guess it's because I read it on the internet. I've been carrying around spare belts and not needing them for years. I figure why change now. I have 1500 miles on my original belt and I will run it till it's worn out.Joe Why do Yamahas need to have a spare belt ?

Mine is in the bottom of my large tunnel bag still in the plastic wrapper. I do like the idea of zip tying it to the charge tube also!

Not hot enough to melt the charge tube... I think the belt will be fine.
