I need a new belt for my Vmax600 '94 and at work we have shelves full of belts to BR250's (89X) and also some 87X-type belts. The 89X doesn't of course fit the Vmax but the 87X is almost the same(width, lenght, height) as the recommended (89L-type) except the angle is slightly different, from 87X's 30±2' degrees to the 89L's 28±1' degrees. Am I saving in the wrong place now if I put the 87X-belt and will it cause slippage or should I just buy the correct belt(89L) for my Vmax?
One website said that both(89L+87X)fits the Vmax600 but in reality how is it? I'm just wondering about the angle; wrong angle and the whole surface of the belt isn't touching the clutch plates and causes slippage OR few angles here and there doesn't make any difference?!
