Hi,

I have a Majesty YP 250 from the year 2000. Bought her for a song 6 months back (at 28k miles), and replaced a few bits to use for the daily commute.

Soon after getting the Maj. had a drive belt snap (likely it was very old). Got a genuine Yamaha belt and replaced. Noted that variator pulley had a slight 'step' in it, which was notable when throttle off from about 60mph down to 55-ish.

Anyway, six months and about 4.5k miles after replacing belt it's gone again.

Considering replacing both pulleys along with new belt, and have a couple of questions for any thoughts, please:

1) Majesty pulleys for older years seem nigh on impossible to find at justifiable price.  Are there other bike models (X-max etc?) whose pulleys are identical?

2) Are aftermarket belts generally stronger (Kevlar reinforced?) than the Yam one?

Many thanks to all.

Jon
