Seem to be a lot cheaper than anywhere else?

That gives me the impression thats the price for one belt

I've been using Flennor belts for a few years. Not sure where you'd get them though, my old stockist closed a year or so ago

I'll need a pair soon so I'll have to hunt some down.

While researching the part number it seems that the Ducati belts are sold as a pair under one part number, at least according to this listing: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/274118448661

I guess I could ask the seller!

I emailed them and they said they are priced individually.

Hmm, these ones are £75 posted: https://www.ducati.tech/shop/CCW-TB-...irs-p586101065

Any better or worse than the official Ducati ones?

NSR500 · 07-11-2024, 08:58 AM

They are meant to be 'better' but are they, never used them but saw them mentioned many times on other Ducati forums, they will most likely end up being pretty much the same to be fair, all down to personal choice i guess.

slob · 07-11-2024, 09:13 AM

£75/pair posted looks good to me
Nothing wrong with Exactfit/CAcycleworks
Chris’ videos on the maintenence procedures are top notch

Dukedesmo · 07-11-2024, 09:23 AM

I've currently got the Cycle works belts on both my Ducatis.

Can't say if they're any better as they work and look the same as the Ducati belts to me but, 4 years and counting with no problems and not heard of any elsewhere.

NSR500 · 07-11-2024, 10:43 AM

Well NO they are not the same, they a far supeior to OEM and any other make out there, I have never seen or heard one of these belts braking which cannot be said for the OEM, little video below explaines some of the thinking

Oh and you get to see the old Chris Kelly before he went a bit odd and turned himself into a girl

Give Stu a call at Exact UK if your worried

There will always be a cheap option but when it breaks ££$£$£$£$£$£$£'s your choice

yourguitarhero · 07-11-2024, 05:30 PM

OK, I will get the Exactfit ones at £75. Sounds fair to me.

Thanks guys!
