How did you like the 225 flash? Did it waken it up a bit. Everything was still stock on clutching and exhaust using the 225?
It was a bigger difference than I expected. Up to 6000 rpm, it was as normal, but after that it became much stronger. Otherwise it was completely stock. Much more fun than stock tune.
 
Last year I drove Hurricane 225 flash, otherwise standard. Drove 2650 km (1650 mile) with 8jp, no problem.
This year I drive Hurricane 270 race with Thunder Products Big Venom kit and Orange Secondary set at 3,3. Running 6 km (4 mile) the belt went straight of, put on a used belt that lasted 100 km (62 mile), then it went straight of. Put on a new belt that lasted 250 km (155 mile), it went straight of. All the belts went off as I drove slowly and pulled hard on the gas. The first in loose snow on a lake. The other on hard snow on the trail. The last one was in deep snow. Now I'll try a Gates carbon.
Any suggestions on what to do otherwise?
Have you killed the Gates carbon belt yet ? Go to RockerDan build post. Dr. Dan fixes everything. It will COST ya though. Good things aint cheap, and cheap things aint good. And the MOST expensive is, time.

I put the secondary at 40 (3 + 1) and the belt did not go off, but broke down on one side when I drove in deep snow. It got a little lazy at low speeds. I put an 8JP and took away 3/4 weight in heel and now it works very well. I'm considering setting a steeper helix and turning up to 50?
