Anyone have anything to say good, or bad about the New Dayco HPX series Belts?

I used one on my polaris and it did not seem to last as long as the polaris belt so now all I use is the OEM one.

are we talking about the same belt. the HPX is only been out for a short while.. Its not the old HP that everyone has used and disliked..

It has been a while so it must have been the old one but they were not much cheaper then the OEM belt and the OEM belt has served me well.

Ya definetaly not the same one, this one is $60. Its suposly like the ultimate belt, It puts the Highlifter belt to shame they say.. Its really recent and that makes it hard to find reviews on. If anyone knows anything Id apreciate a response..

Thanks

What have you heard about the compromise between a super duty belt and damage to the clutch plates? Something has to give or wear out...I'd rather replace the belt...

I used one and got a 4 day trip to Ga and the last day I shreaded it.  Stick with the OEM.  I have tried 2 of them and they suck wind.  I ride forever on the OEM.
