Rear Drive Belt - 01 FLHTC
Morning all,
I've been looking for a new (139 Tooth, 1.5" wide) drive belt for my 01 Electra Glide. I've been trying to find them in the range of the lower $100, but every place seems to be out of stock. Every place that has them in stock, the price is in the high $100 to low $200. Do any of you all happen to know of a place that that would happen to have one of these in stock, around the low-ish $100 price?

Hey Josh-
Yeah, Id agree with grbrown on this one. Not wanting to presume your circumstances, Id recommend choking and paying the least for a known branded belt. But as youve found out, its a few notches above the $150 mark.

Yes.....buy the OEM Harley one. You know itll be fine and last. Never know with Aftermarket?
Check the pulleys also.....last thing you want is a belt wearing out prematurely due to a worn pulley.

HD OEM or Gates....
I would bet that Gates makes them for HD, if not Gates are the IMHO top of the line when it comes to belts and hoses.
Either way it is a 200 dollar part... don't cheap out on condoms, bourbon, or drive belts

Thank you all for the replies. It does make sense to go with name brand when it comes to something like this. And thanks for the pully comment. Handn't thought of that. Good one.
