Hi all,
Has anyone tried the second generation M3W timing belt from BigDog in the USA? The original was notorious for its very short life span but they have since listed a Kevlar reinforced version.
Anyone given it a go?
Cheers,
Paul

My friend installed one of the new kevlar reinforced Big Dog belts on his 3W several months ago. It lasted less than 1000 miles. It snapped in two in his driveway, fortunately. I had also purchased one for my car, but after his experience did not have it installed. We ordered factory belts from Morgan Spares. YMMV.
