Belts may come and go.... But, you're stuck with that engine for the life of...........well, the engine.

I broke my engine in hard and the belt is doing just fine.

My best advise.... be smart. Everyone's right.... belts are easy to replace.... motors not. I watched all my buddies bag their machines, so bad we had a few smokers. Funny thing is, mine seems to be the fastest by a fair margin. Smoked my best friend X by 3-4 lengths every run. Low range only a length and a half. Hmmmm. Have fun.
