Author Message   Sekalilgai Posted on Tuesday, July 22, 2008 - 11:10 pm:        The stock 07 Uly belt G0500.1AKD So any guesses what a G0500.1AKE is? Lists for $175 Anyone thinking what I'm thinking? http://www.buell.com/en_us/company/news/detail.asp ?news_id=1404 OK I'll go back into the garage and quit being a pest   Froggy Posted on Tuesday, July 22, 2008 - 11:18 pm:        That indeed is a part number for a belt! It looks to be the new 09 belt. I think I will have to get one now   Sekalilgai Posted on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 - 10:03 am:        I just spoke with my local parts guys and he confirmed that g0500.1akd has been superseded by g0500.1ake and that the backorder date (as others have shared) is 8/11.   Etennuly Posted on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 - 11:22 am:        Hi Ken! GO500AKE is indeed the new belt's number. I have my new one in front of me. It was on back order for three weeks, so if you will be needing one ya have to order early! If yours is broke you can use mine and replace it with a new order, just let me know.   Sekalilgai Posted on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 - 01:33 pm:        Vern Thanks for the offer! Belt still ok-ish. I am in need of a new rear tire and was going to change belts ....for no good reason other than having a spare (and stirring up an argument as to which to carry). I've noticed some fraying along the edges and been feeling a little more 'lash' of late...but that could just be paranoia. Hey, you coming up in a couple of weeks? Ken   Etennuly Posted on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 - 02:24 pm:        Hey, you coming up in a couple of weeks? Mebby I am. I'm trying to make it happen. I'm gonna go ahead and install that new belt this weekend. I will be carrying the old one as a spare.   Paul56 Posted on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 - 11:44 pm:        My 2 cents on the new belt: Install the new one in the comfort of your well equipped and assistant-handy garage. Carry the old one as a spare. After struggling mightily with the new belt I was very glad I wasn't trying to do it on the road!
