Yamaha has a 10 year warranty on the belt.

It's a sales pitch by Honda, the belts on yamaha do not break or fail, they're the best cvt in the business.

And one helluva lot smoother and more efficient than a clunky slushbox, and less maintenance as well.

a 10 year warranty on a $100 part...lol.. belt life is 100% dependent upon how they are used. Has nothing to do with the CVT. They are low HP is why they'll last longer.

like I said, it was a sales thing to counter Honda's sales pitch of no belts
Well honda can kind of back their sales pitch up....i dont think anyone can argue the dependability of honda...plus there isnt a belt driven machine that can crawl down a steep hill...correct me if im wrong but its pretty hard to push a button and select a gear on any of the belt driven machines.  My honda even in high does an amazing job down shifting by itself into the gear i want going down hill or up hill.

My old Kawasaki KRX1000 could.  It would come to a stop on occasion.  Excellent down hill.
MAGA!  Again..
