Thanks guys.
It's a balmy 51* here at the moment. Not too bad for November in Minnesota.
So who makes the best belt? Reckon I got some wrenching coming up.

Thanks. Just in and pushed into the garage. Sipping on a cool Summit Winter Ale and looking over the belt. Must picked up rock or something, the belts not in bad shape for 46K miles.
Hats off to Foremost Ins. The tow was covered 100%.
Another motorcycle adventure for the record book.

I've thought about carrying one. Doesn't look like it would fit through the primary housing on a Dyna. Anybody know?
