I think the belt drive will be sweet but I think it is going to limit a guys gear choice.I don't think you will have more than a few belt /gear choices.Unless it is going to be a remote tension belt and I don't think it will be but hard to say I know it would cost more and weigh more than just a fixed length belt.
95% of the buyers wont know the diff they just like to say they have the new belt drive system and only understand that it is new and that is good enough to impress the neighbor.

this is CMX system been out for yrs

I do not think the gear choices is that big of an issue. My 2012 Pro runs same spring, helix and gear for all altitudes from 0' to 10,000 '. at 10,000 feet it recommends a spring change. Note clutch weights are changed only at 2000' altitude increments. So to me this looks like gear ratio is figured out to cover the bases, unless Ricky Racing a RMK Pro is in your plans, gearing is just fine. My 300# brother in law rode a John Deere Spitfire free air with direct drive and all of no horse power back in the day and that was one of the best sleds around for putting the ponies to the ground.

like I said 95% wont give a 2nd thought the other 5% who want real power from the basic porting and pipes to full race gas turbo will want and need to re gear and the aftermarkets will be happy to set them up I am sure just more $

Hey Skylar your new sled looks just like mine. Any plans for a wrap? I know you made a young man happy with the 600, he has been texting me all afternoon!

No wraps right now, maybe before next season. I think he will like the 600, I know I sure did!

I have a very accurate clutching chart if you need it. Dealer will print you one on request for free. The Pro I find has a little bit of a learning curve as far as the flickability part. I can actually lift the front or back up on my own. Nice for when the buddies look the other way when stuck! Lol.
