Common Questions About Gates G-Force Belts

How do I know which Gates G-Force belt fits my UTV or ATV?

Witchdoctors.com provides a comprehensive fitment guide on each product page. Simply input your vehicle's make, model, and year to find the exact Gates G-Force belt designed for your machine. You can also contact our expert customer service for assistance.

Do I need to break in a new Gates G-Force belt?

Yes, proper break-in is crucial for maximizing belt life and performance. We recommend two "heat cycles" of 20 minutes each, riding between 25-45 mph without exceeding ¾ throttle, followed by a 30-minute cool-down period with the engine off. Avoid aggressive accelerations or heavy loads during this period.

How do I clean my clutch sheaves before installing a new belt?

It's essential to remove all old belt residue, dirt, and oils from the clutch sheaves. Use a maroon Scotch-Brite™ pad to scuff off contaminants, then thoroughly clean the surfaces with alcohol or acetone. Do NOT use brake cleaner. A clean clutch system is vital for optimal belt performance and longevity.

How often should I replace my drive belt?

Belt lifespan varies greatly depending on riding style, terrain, and vehicle modifications. Regularly inspect your belt for signs of wear, cracking, fraying, or glazing. For high-performance machines or aggressive riders, it's often wise to carry a spare belt.
