EVO Powersports Can-Am Defender HD11/HD10/HD8 Bad Ass Drive Belts
EVP Bad Ass Drive Belts for Can-Am Maverick X3 offer far-superior performance at a lower price point than OEM belts. For years, EVP has been working directly with GBoost Technology, a highly regarded CVT belt and clutching manufacturer, to validate many new belt compounds for SXS’s and Snowmobiles. Each compound gets subjected to an extensive durability regiment through our sponsored race program and on our own big-horsepower vehicles. Besides being more durable compared to OEM belts, Bad Ass belt compounds provide better grip, which transfers more power to the ground instead of excess belt dust. Furthermore, GBoost is one of the only manufacturers that designs belts for different uses and conditions for the same vehicle.
WORLD’S BEST BELT: The toughest, best all-around belt proven repeatedly in the most extreme conditions! EVP World's Best (WB) Belts are for the rider/racer that is looking for a tried-and-true belt that’s better than OEM with proven performance. Third-generation heavy duty, high-twisted aramid fiber cord is used for high-horsepower machines, making it the strongest belt on the market next to our XR Race Series belt and surpassing our Extreme Belt. The WB belt has a high shock load rating to withstand the power of up to 400hp machines. This belt acts like the OEM belt in terms of engagement and operating RPM’s.
EXTREME (EX) BELT: Extreme performance and reliability. The EX Belt is built for the extreme trail/mud riders that need a ton of belt squeeze to stop from the belt from slipping and deliver enhanced response at all RPM levels. This belt changed our Wisconsin trail driving habits and allowed us to drive our vehicles to the limit without the fear of premature belt failure. The specific compounds in this belt make the engagement quicker while lowering the peak engine operating speeds by about 200 RPM’s.
Features
WORLD'S BEST (WB) BELTS
- Manufacturing, quality control certifications =-ISO-14001, ISO-9001, and IATF-16949
- 3rd Generation heavy-duty, high-twist Aramid Fiber cord for high-horsepower tensile load requirements, making it one of the strongest belts on the market.
- Higher shock load rating to date being able to withstand the power of the 400hp machines.
- Increased top cog pressure load design that increases sidewall rigidity, prevents top cog bowing, but still allows for increased rotational flexibility.
- Bottom cog uses high-modulus rubber compound (BZX1) for better heat resistance and heat dissipation.
- Bottom cog is impregnated with short Aramid Fibers for better belt-to-sheave adhesion and reduced overall belt temperature.
- Latest bottom cog design for greater rotational efficiency at full shift.
- Precision ground sidewall angle (SCUFFING) for smooth engagement, increased power transfer and lower operating belt temperature.
- Aramid Fiber cord, versus polyester, wraps over bottom cogs for increased bottom cog strength.
- Increased cord pop-out resistance.
EXTREME (EX) BELTS:
- EX belts have been developed with a high-temperature compound called DUMAX for added strength, flexibility, and heat resistance.
- Ultra-strong Aramid Fiber cord that can handle/carry more than 10,000 pounds of tension without stretching or breaking.
- Higher strength compared to OEM and aftermarket drive belts
- Delivers exceptional 'belt squeeze' for more tuning possibilities and less slippage.
- Maximum under-cord stiffness allows the belt to flex for rotational efficiency and cooler running temperatures
- Built for high temps, extreme abuse, and excessive shock load.
Fitment
2016+ Defender HD11/HD10/HD8 All Models
- Replaces OEM #'s 422280651 / 422280652 for the X3/Defender/Sport models
