I like to see that K60 on there. I think that's what im going with soon here. How is the traction on it? Im hoping someone that has tried a TKC80 has also tried the K60 and can compare them.

Dam man! I would have shipped you mine express mail to keep your trip alive!
Hard lesson learned; carry a spare!
BTW how many miles did you have on that belt?
Just noticed you said riding weekend. Its the thought that counts right?

Thanx guys! Thanx for the offer Chickn!
The belt had about 43 000km on.
I always checked for visible cracks on the outside, but didn't notice the inner tooth sections so well!
We were planning some proper riding -2 long days of off-road in Baviaanskloof.
I bought the Heidenau for a few reasons CJ...
Tyre choice is limited in South Africa - specially in Uly size.
Wanted something which would give more mileage.
Plus the liquid cooled GS1200 now runs a 170 rear, which is fine for the Uly.
Can't give feedback yet, but holds good on tar and good on small bit of off-road we did.
Contemplating whether something like Free Spirits tensioner will work/make a difference for the tension during off-roading?
A few of us will be ordering belts next week. Gonna be a ripper, as our exchange rate is reaaaaaally bad at the moment.
Thanx Zuma...
HD only stocks service parts. This you can pretty much buy at any other bike shop for cheaper.

Story goes from bad to worse... Bike transport company notified me today that their vehicle was involved in an accident last night and my bike got some damage on the left. Pannier trashed, mirror, etc.
Unsure of the extent of the damage,but I will go check tomorrow.

Oh crap!
Was their some type of insurance involved?
Man, talk about some bad luck!

I'm sure they have. They are a well known bike transport business.
My brother's brokerage handles our insurance and he is going to drive the whole thing. It'll be OK.

Check your primary cover too! there may be a small crack somewhere. Also check your shift shaft that it didnt get bent slightly as that will annoy you until you replace it
