That test drive you did on the EVP belt that's done using a special car with 500hp and a 700hp shot of NOS and a steady spray of it this video by no means was sped up. Lol. Thought that was funny
@@ftorvideo Actually I think the way you and the SXSblog guys test stuff is the most honest I've seen from anyone. When SXSblog was putting on the LSR suspension on Beastmode they mentioned that they tried for 4 hours to put on a gusset kit, it didn't work out but they didn't mention who it was made by or trash talk it. It would be nice to know so I don't get the same one, but I do respect that both of your channels give honest informed opinions and reviews of the products. I'm sunscribed to both and consider both very entertaining and informative. Please keep it up.
Saw this belt in another video u guys did glad i seen this one i will definitely be getting one for for my new x3 thanks for ur awesome videos been enjoying them
Full Throttle Off Road, cuz of you and all the fun you have I just got an X3! Delivery next week! Thanks guys for putting a maverick apple in my eyes!😈😵😈
Thanks for the comment brother! I do believe they make one of these belts for the RZR! check out their website, I think i saw part numbers for all of the top cars
Man your right. I thought I looked but sure enough they do. Thanks bud lol Boneheaded move on my part Want to do stage 5 e85 so bad but I ride all over the place and finding it concerns me, and fuel consumption is a concern when riding down south for 6 plus hours at a time. Have you noticed a big fall off in usage? I know I see it in my truck
I did notice about a 30% drop in mpg... which is something we need to be aware of now. But hey... if you wanna go fast - we all need to make sacrifices! hehe...
Full Throttle Off Road Vary true. Here in MI not a big deal but we where at brimstone 2 weeks ago and rode close to 30 hours in 3 days so mpg could be a issue. It’s a different world down south and we have a awesome group that shows up and when we show up we ride. No green trails unless they connect us from one extreme trail to another lol great times. Thanks for the feed back. Look foreword to more content.
Yea - we actually agree very much lol. We're going to invest in some belt temp gauges here shortly. Granted, for this test in particular - we'd have just ignored it heh
First ride this year last weekend. Idaho dunes.KWI clutching was flawless last year. Only difference was I put on an EVO badass belt last week. I couldn't get over 7700 rpms. Talked with EVO rep and I need to lighten up some clutch weights. It's always something.
Lightening the clutch weights is one option, but it's not the proper option. You need to adjust the clamping pressure of the secondary. You can do this by moving the clocking of the spring from 4 to 6. We have videos on how to do this in our video library, let me know if you need a hand. Also, they're about to release a new belt that's supposed to shift like an OEM belt (fixes the RPM drop issue) but still be just as strong as the Bad Ass belt. So maybe just hold tight for about 4 more weeks... we'll be testing that belt on our channel too - so stick around!
@@ftorvideo spot on. Exactly what my local EVO rep said this morning. He's going to get me a sand storm in a couple of weeks and then upgrade from 3r to 4rwi multi map. Keep up the great work and get the team out this way sometime. Montana mountains and Idaho big dunes await.
I have a 2017 defender I got used with 30hrs. Long squeak story short, I had to completely remove bushings, clean and polish the metal inserts and re grease. Fixed! Anything less will not work, trust me I know.
Bad ass bud! Just subbed. My girlfriend and I have been considering getting the Maverick “R” version since we live in the desert and I’m not sure if the others would fare as well with the rocky terrain. What would you recommend for desert with rock/sand as the ground make up?
Thanks for the sub Anthony! Much appreciated! I'm pretty sure the R just means it's a the high performance model. They have the 900 high output which is non turbo, the "Turbo" model - with a turbo... And then the Turbo R model which has a turbo and intercooler. I'd always go with the Turbo R model!
Either get the x rs turbo r or the x rc turbo r. The rs is basically the balanced model meant to fo everything and is 72" wide. The rc is for rock crawling and climbing. The the rzr xp turbo s would also be worth looking into. They're awesome machines too.
I wanna grab one after my gates gforce c12 breaks. Will be interesting to compare em. The gates c12 does really good I got a little over 1100 miles out of my last one.
Agreed! You should really give one of these a try! I have no doubt that if we weren't just flooring it for miles at a time, and actually took care of this belt.. we'd see 1,000 mile + as well
Nice review but ain't no way I'm driving trails like that without being in 4wd, because once the rear end starts coming around, you just can't hardly power out of it without the front tires pulling...
Still not nearly good enough. I think we have exceeded the limits of the use of a belt. We need a better drive system that can take it all day long everyday year after year.
I just ordered one from gboosttechnology.com. Same part number, I also noticed Trinity belt write up is the same as G Boost word for word. Thanks for doing this test. We are pushing about 200 hp and can't keep belts on it.
Same boat as us! We just switched to the high boost 5rwi setup from #EvolutionPowersports, which is in the ballpark of 200whp as well. We're going to be running these belts exclusively now for sure
I know I already made a comment. And then I thought about those other 2 belts. They were done with stage 3. Not stage 5. So yea, 5 times better. Actually you should do one more test with an OEM belt. Man that thing is wicked.
Nice video. Although for me on my 2020 X3. XDS. Four wheel drive trail active all the time. The front wheels are spinning faster than the rears. Not unless you want max rooster tail and drifting. Also all the front end axles diff. what are you saving it for? I like to spread my 225HP to all the wheels. Wear it out evenly. It’s faster in that mode.
Speed? Well.. I didn't include in car footage of the 5rwi running down that path for a reason. 90mph raised hairs on people's necks... so... figured I'd be mysterious about how fast I was going here ;) All I can tell is the trees were moving very fast!
Hey Aaron, we all appreciate your videos but your testing through those tight trails is a bit risky at 90 mph (IMO). If something happened to your car; flat tire, broken tie rod, a-arm, axle or a deer or Sasquatch hitch hiking.... it could be an ugly mess. I am a desert and dune rat so I have never really ran hard in the trees. It just seems a there would be a safer test ground at those speeds. Not trying to preach, just want you to be around form a long time to test all these cool accessories for us!
Thanks for the love brotherman! At those speeds, if something went wrong I don't think it would really matter if we were on the street or the trail. Every time we get in these things we accept a certain level of risk ya know? We're thrill seekers! Pray it never falls apart though lol
that has to be a wild ride! love it man! im gonna have to do some changes to mine. i cant cruise much past 80 on the road without losing control its all over the place taking up the whole road to keep under control especially at 92mph any tips?? tried to 0-60 test to compare with you as well and i cant do it. it roast all 4 tires and drifts right off the road back on and off again just floating and i tried many times cant get it to hook enough to accomplish it. its sketchy as fuck lol. god i love this stuff. keep up the awesome vids bro! its takes a BIG ole set of balls do to what you did in this video! also pretty sure wick it performance just came out with a new belt claiming to be stronger feel free to test it. i guess they have different levels for different power levels if you haven't heard yet. i have and Evo belt and i give it hell so far so good!
Hey brotherman! It sounds to me like your alignment is off man. We do our 0-60 pulls in 4wd... in 2wd, you just melt the tires. On the gravel, I can roll all 4 tires easily though. Thanks for the comment!!
Full Throttle Off Road I am also doing in 4wd and it's roasting all 4 of them and basically hops and drifts of the road weather your counter steering or not. I wasn't sure with some suspension things you done how much better it would do.
Thanks brotherman! I think making the intros to these videos lately has been the most fun part about making the videos! I really enjoy making the cinematic style clips
You shouldn't notice any additional wear on the clutch surfaces. Proper clutching is a must though, especially if you car is tuned! The belts are a lot harder, but not hard enough to damage a clutch
Hello, Will here. I'm new to sxs and have a Maverick xrs. My belt recently broke and I did some research and thought the gboost world's best belt should be a reliable belt for us on the farm here. I bought it and installed it then broke it in based on the proper recommendations. Within 4 miles including the break in miles it broke and I never exceeded twenty-five mph. I'm at a loss... Should I believe anything? Or just stick with OEM?
Great stress test. I think I'm also more confused now though. I feel like 5 miles with the petal on the floor just doesn't seem like much. Is it just heat that is making them blow? How are long distance racers not always blowing belts? Also Really curious to see how other machines fair against this kinda test.
Hey brother! Long distance racers modulate their throttle by monitoring belt temps to keep the belt in a somewhat safe area. It's not a good idea for anyone in an endurance race to keep the peddle down for miles at a time. On and off, let it breath. We weren't interested in letting it breath lol... We just want to see how much abuse it could take in comparison to an OEM belt in extreme heat scenarios. I am completely confident that if we drove with belt temp in mind, this belt would last... A really really long time
Most wide open throttle spurts are like, 600-1000 feet, a football field or two. Not 10,000 feet... Typically lol. And hey, it survived 5 passes over that stretch when the OEM belt would only survive 1!
Hi! Very nice video. Thank you. Is it sufficient to change only the belt for longer life or I have to change all the clutch parts . My Maverick is brand new and its stock.
it's about 20 miles and / or an hour of heat cycling at a moderate pace. So 15 minutes a variable speeds (not full throttle) then let it cool. Repeat 3 times.
Hej Aaron, wanderful product for tuning. My question: how much cost Can Am 2018 with your tuning. I dream to visit USA und buy Can Am with your concept. Thanks. John from Burundi
They both already have them. Cvt and belt technology have just gotten so good and efficient, I feel like they may be a while. It's hard to justify the investment when things are getting pretty reliable now. The new GBoost belt is extremely reliable and a cvt is so easy to build and maintain. I'm sure they will eventually
Bummer, I have the 652 belt on my car right now and 2 extras under the rear back seat. Oh well, When I blow 2 I will order some Evo belts. I am only running a 2R Evo tune but then again I mostly dune so that is a lot of stress.
Totally worth it brotherman - We sell them on our site with free shipping and a 5% discount code. Check out fullthrottleoffroad.video/shop and browse the Geiser parts. The belt is right there!
Damn man I never hit those trails. I don’t miss silver lake but I do miss trails a ton, it was a blast when we had 6 quads all trail riding. One day I’ll have a side by side on the bike has a turbo and I have a house 😂
Mate I’m just wondering why you aren’t running 4wd? Especially when you are complaining that the buggy is so fast that it’s an effort to drive. Is it just to make bigger roosts off the back tyres to look more impressive or is there a genuine reason?
Dental insurance? My teeth will be the least of my concerns if I hit a tree at 90mph lol... But I get what you're saying ;) Let's just hope I don't lose it!
Oh ya..lets hope for sure, but you seem like a very skilled driver and Im jealous as all hell with what you have for a playground. Cheers to you mate! Awesome vids!!
Anything can be broken, my son when he was little could have probably broken an anvil with a rubber hammer. If you're not breaking stuff you may ad well get a golf cart.
Cool vid... I would like see with ur tune the top speed... I run down in Baja on my x3 2017 "la salada" a 50 mile flat open desert trail. I have done it open throutle max my liniter speed of 85 almost the entire stretch... I have 700 miles plus on my OEM belt in Baja pre running for the 500... My question is... Is ur x3 tune only for drag or can it handle Baja trails at competitive speeds or Las Vegas Reno race trails with minimal belt failure
That’s why I’m gonna buy a Honda talon,,gear driven. Have a Polaris razor right now. Here in Arizona right now in the summer. It’s 100°. It’s best not to even drive your machine. It was just smoke the belt sad,!
HAH! The video is honest... that was the only one we broke. I wanted to put the entire run in the video... but 30 miles made for a 30 minute video.... much too long
Shame on Can-Am search expensive machine breaking belts in the midst of them off-road Trail. If the belt is prematurely breaking, what else on their vehicle will have a short life? in my my honest opinion for the money you pay for it, this is not acceptable. It is past time for UTV's manufacturers drop you stupid CVT system and have real gearbox. If CVT was a good system all high performance Vehicles what do you use it.
That stage 5rwi warp drive though.............
The Piccard face palm on Dozer, Lol!
Well how do you mess up that turnaround??! LOL
That test drive you did on the EVP belt that's done using a special car with 500hp and a 700hp shot of NOS and a steady spray of it this video by no means was sped up. Lol. Thought that was funny
Lap one wasn't sped up, lap 2 was... Was trying real hard to keep it under 20 minutes!
Full Throttle Off Road on second lap it was like you hit the NOS button. With the new stage 5 in what's your new top speed ??
almost bought the OEM until I watched your review on this belt, just ordered mine for my X3..you guys rock!!
I ordered one for my RZR XPT from our good friends at sxsblog, cant wait to beat the crap out of it,great review guys
Thanks for the love man! Yea, we actually just got 2 more of these belts from them yesterday ;)
Because of your test I have purchased one of these belts! Way to go!
“THROTTLE THRU IT!”
Razorback belt temp gauge would have been interesting to see the temperature. Great video bud.
It's on our list of things to pick up, for sure! Thanks for the comment my friend!
Full Throttle Off Road holy crap i assumed you guys had those already. Makes a huge difference how u drive
Agreed!! Although, for this test... We'd have just ignored them anyway lol
@@ftorvideo have you put a temp gauge on the belt yet? Love to know those temps when it broke
I love the “control” of this test. GREAT job bro’s!!! What a great way to test a belt on a known destroyer of belts route. 👍👍👍
Thank you my friend!
As's always a good honest review of a great product brought to you by honest and good Michigan people
Thank you for the love my friend!!
That was perfect. I'm so glad you persisted until it broke. That's the only way to test something definitively. Great job.
Thanks brother! Yea... It wouldn't be a good test if we couldn't tell people, in our experience, how much longer it lasted. Appreciate the comment!

Great Vid Aaron, looks like my future has an EVO belt in it for my X3 as well. Thanks
Hell yea man! We're exclusively going to be running them on our cars from here on out!
Your video was very helpful in making my decision on what belt drive to get THANK YOU
Never get between a man

Need to get this for the dunes Glamis is tough on belts
Agreed!
Well I know what my next belt purchase will be!!
Well done, just got my evo map tuner for my new machine last night so the build begins. Now just need evo to make one for a rzr turbo lol.

It sure did! By a long and clear margin! Thanks for the comment brother!
Nice review man.
Thank you my friend!
Just blew my first OEM belt...now changing my mind on the OEM!!
These belts rock! We sell them in our store, free shipping!
I still haven't blown the one I put on after this video, 8 months and 600 miles later

Great vid man! Does your X3 squeak a ridiculous amount?!
If she's not greased up, yes she does
Full Throttle Off Road my rear shocks are really squeaky
Yeah I greas all greass fittings before every ride
I have a 2017 defender I got used with 30hrs. Long squeak story short, I had to completely remove bushings, clean and polish the metal inserts and re grease. Fixed! Anything less will not work, trust me I know.

Not true its all on how ur car is setup n ur driving skills
Four wheel drive trail active is the way to go. More speed better control. Not unless your looking for maximum rooster tail.
The intro is nuts. Be careful man you could go out of control and go right into the trees
I hear ya brother... I enjoy the edge though! I just pray I never go over it!
Still not nearly good enough. I think we have exceeded the limits of the use of a belt. We need a better drive system that can take it all day long everyday year after year.

Thanks brotherman! We're using the Geiser inner clutch housing liners at the moment!
I know I already made a comment. And then I thought about those other 2 belts. They were done with stage 3. Not stage 5. So yea, 5 times better. Actually you should do one more test with an OEM belt. Man that thing is wicked.
Wow Cool, good comparison, I think I may have to get one of those!
It's a win win! They cost about the same as an OEM belt!
What is the cost difference in the belts?

I bet they were at that speed. 😂
I would be very interested in knowing how hot the EVO belt got. Any chance you could add a Razorback temp gauge and do this run again?
Absolutely! Probably not until it breaks this time lol... The next belt comes from my pocket! But we will add gauges here shortly
Nice! How'd the belt box fare when the belt blew?
The belt blew off the exhaust ports on the top of the housing, both of them. but the case itself was fine!
Full Throttle Off Road Damn, you got lucky!
So should I expect to replace belts every 5 miles? Even if it’s oem?
Hey Aaron, we all appreciate your videos but your testing through those tight trails is a bit risky at 90 mph (IMO).

My question is, with a more robust belt is it going to cause more wear on the clutch surfaces? I've seen some clutches with heavy wear on the faces.
You shouldn't notice any additional wear on the clutch surfaces. Proper clutching is a must though, especially if you car is tuned! The belts are a lot harder, but not hard enough to damage a clutch

How do you think the EVO belt compares to Hunterworks belts?
I haven't used one so I cant say for sure. I'd put my bet on the evo belt though
Hi! Very nice video. Thank you. Is it sufficient to change only the belt for longer life or I have to change all the clutch parts . My Maverick is brand new and its stock.
A stock unit should be ok just changing the belt.
Thanks a lot
do you think the belt will perform better on a " non - tuned" base maverick X3 (120hp) ?
Possibly!
Be nice to see a temp gauge on the belt
Agreed! We have them coming :) But for this test - we'd have just ignored them anyways heh
Will this belt work on a can-am 2016 renegade xxc 1000r
How many hours did you put on the break in on this belt? 10 hrs like OEM?
it's about 20 miles and / or an hour of heat cycling at a moderate pace. So 15 minutes a variable speeds (not full throttle) then let it cool. Repeat 3 times.

Which oem belt did you use for the test?
The 2018 BRP OEM Belt. 422280652
Bummer, I have the 652 belt on my car right now and 2 extras under the rear back seat. Oh well, When I blow 2 I will order some Evo belts. I am only running a 2R Evo tune but then again I mostly dune so that is a lot of stress.
Still smiling that's what I like to see 😎😎😎😍😍😍🤯🤯🤯🤯
Hell Yea brotherman!
U need to ultimately switch to chain drive and just keep it maintained just like a street bike but u while need a belt tensioner
Exactly how are you going to make the sprocket change teeth on the fly?
Nice eight point turn at the end I'm so proud of my self...grow a pair....lol
When in doubt, (Full) throttle out!
Cool video 👍👍👍, that's who to test shit, runner till she blow's 🤣
Hell yea! How can we really know how good it is until we find where it breaks? We must know!!!
Lol, yup. Awesome test.
I think I may purchase this belt to have available.
Totally worth it brotherman - We sell them on our site with free shipping and a 5% discount code. Check out fullthrottleoffroad.video/shop and browse the Geiser parts. The belt is right there!
Imagine a deer or bear stepping out on that trail while you are wide open like that. Yard sale 100%
You know how viral the video would go if we hit a damn bear!!??
very very impressed 😉 nice life man🖒
I see a helper!
What trail is this?
Up in Manton - my new favorite trail system!
Damn man I never hit those trails. I don’t miss silver lake but I do miss trails a ton, it was a blast when we had 6 quads all trail riding. One day I’ll have a side by side on the bike has a turbo and I have a house 😂
We'll still be ripping!
Full Throttle Off Road 25 years not much different the toy is just bigger. Went from a RC10GT to X3
Hah! Yea... We'll be kids for life! Just hopefully we don't take off uncontrollably, or send it too hard on a steep jump
Where is that trail?
Manton Michigan
Gotta be the heat. No reason to run wide open like that. I understand ur channel name. I hope you got good life insurance for the wife and kid.
What is the best belt you can buy for your Can Am Maverick X3 ? Also how long do they normally last?
Buy a Yami, Hahahaha. Great vid man.
Thanks brother!
I just noticed your buddy had his green key in. That's the learner key smh
Hah.. no... He had both his keys flashed to fast. He doesn't have a learner key anymore
Oh lol
@@ftorvideo I do the same lol. Ya here you go kids. No go ride your dirt bike.
Mate I’m just wondering why you aren’t running 4wd? Especially when you are complaining that the buggy is so fast that it’s an effort to drive. Is it just to make bigger roosts off the back tyres to look more impressive or is there a genuine reason?
The compound in the bell is too hard and it wears away your clutches
Race driving 101 never rest your thumbs on a wheel like that. Any hard impact and your thumbs will be toast as your torso moves forward...
ON THE GAS!!!!!!!
Hammer down is the only way!
Same problem on the turbo snowmobiles.. To much heat in the clutches..Spent 1000 dollars in belts to drive 3500 miles. Not fun.
Agreed brotherman! This might be the best we get though, until something better comes along. Lets hope!
I really hope you have dental insurance for when you hit a tree at 90+ mph, otherwise awesome vid!
Dental insurance? My teeth will be the least of my concerns if I hit a tree at 90mph lol... But I get what you're saying ;) Let's just hope I don't lose it!
Oh ya..lets hope for sure, but you seem like a very skilled driver and Im jealous as all hell with what you have for a playground. Cheers to you mate! Awesome vids!!
Thank you for the support brother!
Anything can be broken, my son when he was little could have probably broken an anvil with a rubber hammer. If you're not breaking stuff you may ad well get a golf cart.
Cool vid... I would like see with ur tune the top speed... I run down in Baja on my x3 2017 "la salada" a 50 mile flat open desert trail. I have done it open throutle max my liniter speed of 85 almost the entire stretch... I have 700 miles plus on my OEM belt in Baja pre running for the 500... My question is... Is ur x3 tune only for drag or can it handle Baja trails at competitive speeds or Las Vegas Reno race trails with minimal belt failure
ZZZZZZZZZZ
That’s why I’m gonna buy a Honda talon,,gear driven. Have a Polaris razor right now. Here in Arizona right now in the summer. It’s 100°. It’s best not to even drive your machine. It was just smoke the belt sad,!
You guys should pick up a razorback belt temp gauge from sxsblogparts.com to watch your temps
It's on our list :)
Hola cómo debo pedir la correa (código ) X-3 RC turbo R
Get the Honda talon no belt can ride all day all power no good if have to replace belt in short ride
terry beck it’s so slow that not many x3 owners would keep it long.
Yamaha yxz for the win
But they dont really win much
@@ftorvideo if they don't win much how about you race a Yamaha yxz on that same trail and do five laps see who wins lol
I guess it's the classic Tortoise and the hair eh?
Bunch of trail riding Midwest boys let’s see a southwest 4 foot deep whoop ripping video see how your belt lasts 😂
120 hp ????
How many have you broken and not showed it on video? hahah
HAH! The video is honest... that was the only one we broke. I wanted to put the entire run in the video... but 30 miles made for a 30 minute video.... much too long
Full Throttle Off Road i wasnt referring to just this belt i was talking about just a total of broken belts lol
Oh, total? I've had the car now going on 2 years and I'm 3 belts in, 4 if you count this one. Only one blew up my clutch housing at least!
4th 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Every time I upload I look forward to our regulars posting... Feels like family now!
Full Throttle Off Road my brother from another mother 😎😎😎😍😍😍
I say it's unbreakable...
Bummer, glad to see it performed well.
5x better has my attention! We're running these belts exclusively now!
And rightfully so it appears.
FIRST!
MY MANS!!!!
I couldn't have done it with out you. Great review
Thank you for the love brotherman!!
So word is these Can Am’s are junk... easy to break, parts failing etc. how have yours held up?
Polaris doesn't fall apart more?
Why buy a buggy that breaks belts all the time ? Fuck that shit!
Shame on Can-Am search expensive machine breaking belts in the midst of them off-road Trail. If the belt is prematurely breaking, what else on their vehicle will have a short life? in my my honest opinion for the money you pay for it, this is not acceptable. It is past time for UTV's manufacturers drop you stupid CVT system and have real gearbox. If CVT was a good system all high performance Vehicles what do you use it.
Can am
ErEekrfe
Omg...too much talking!
