    Tired of breaking belts on your 2003-2005 model year Victory? Here is the solution:

    1) Buy a Conquest Customs Overdrive drive pulley for the front. https://shop.conquestcustoms.com/victory92odsprocket.aspx This will help correct the gearing and belt length needs for the second step…..

    2) Buy a later style, Kevlar reinforced belt, Victory pn 3211102 that was used from 2006-2017. These are the “narrow” belts and are tremendously more robust. I’ve never seen one randomly snap like the old “wide” belt would.

    3) Buy a later style rear pulley from a 2006-2017 model (they were all the same, just different colors and finishes). Then press in custom bushings (I can sell them to you, or you can make your own on a lathe) to make up for the difference on bolt diameter from older style to newer style.

    Even though you’ve have a significant expense in the conversion, it’ll work out in the long haul when you’re not stranded far away from home with a broken belt….again!

    By my math, that should put a TC rpms around 3000@ 74.45 mph, assuming the rear sprocket is a 70 tooth one. If anyone has done this, how does it affect 1st gear in driveability?

      Oops, the OD pulley is 32 tooth, so 72 mph.
