High performance is expensive.....
My bagger has some work done to it and is pretty quick for a tuna boat. Was at the Milwaukee rally Sunday. We pulled out of Hal's, and went down the street a couple of blocks. Nobody around, so my buddy and I played at the next stoplight. Launched my bagger, stood the front end up a little, and then.....
Thought I missed second gear. My belt went sailing out the back of the bike about 100 ft. I've changed a belt before, and it's a pain. Gonna cost about $700. Rats!

Buy the belt separately and take it to an indy. You might get a better price on the labor than at a dealership. I've replaced the belt on my girlfriends Dyna. It is not that difficult, just takes some time.

Did that once on the Heritage Showing Off ... The Price had to pay for replacing a perfectly good Belt and 4-5 hours doing the work and calling myself stupid the whole time broke me from the Habit...
