    i thought the 883 belts were the same as a xb9 belt... could be wrong. gaskets should be all the same...

    03 up sportster belt can be used on a 04+ XB except XT, X, and Ss. I'd recommend against it, it's about a $30 savings and it's not kevlar reinforced like the 07+ belts. It is not designed for 100 hp and will break faster. Jugs I think can be used, also, pistons I believe.

    so if i wanted to do the drive upgrade for the new belt your saying the best belt would be for the 07+ not just upgrade to the 04 ,should i go with the xb12 pulleys or the xb9 pulleys hmmmmm..... help

    12 and 9 pulleys are the same.

    04+ pulleys are all the same. Then get a new belt and call it a day.
