I need to change a belt on a friends 49cc GY6. When it comes to 4T I have no clue where to buy or what brand to look for, or even the size for that matter. I would like to get the job done in one trip if possible. TIA

I bought a couple belts from other suppliers and they end up being drop shipped from partsforscooters anyway.
So I would just skip the middle man and buy direct from partsforscooters

........ I would just like to say I hope this four stroke thing is not going to be on going. I expect better from you. 😉 Oh yeah, I had completely forgot about PFS. I was surprised my login there still worked, have not ordered anything from them since 2020 doubt I even logged in since then. And you are correct, I usually would not touch a 4T with a 10' pole but this guy does a lot for me on occasion, he scraps the old HVAC equipment from my jobs and hands me cash. I used to do it myself but nowadays I got better things to do...like nothing!  I bought a couple belts from other suppliers and they end up being drop shipped from partsforscooters anyway. So I would just skip the middle man and buy direct from partsforscooters So if you guys had to guess what size belt would I need? It looks like the common VIP, I think he said YT-50 669-18-30? |

I had him pull the cover off and look at the remnants of the belt. 729 17.7 30 I ordered the Bando 729 18 30 for $40 shipped. Hopefully will not ever have to change it again.

The belt arrived today, just got back from the shop after installing it. When he pulled the CVT cover off to see which belt we needed to order he removed the kickstart lever and the clip that holds the shaft in the cover. Of course the moon gear and the return spring got out of place and had to be reset.  Anyway glad that is over LOL! NO more GY6 for me |

That's a horrible job doing the Kickstarter spring. I feel your pain.

Haha, no I wouldn't take it personal. Honestly we're so focused on wholesale to dealers and drop shippers that we don't market much on the direct to consumer part of the market. You forgetting about us is more our fault than anything else. Bando is the best belt going, I'm glad it worked out. Matt |
