big post on this some time back. 8dn- 01 is for current 4 strokes. 8dn-00 was for srx, viper, sxr. length is same , width was slightly different. some were measured and all together different. i can,t pst results because i use 00 on my srx,s. 3:16 (yammie tony)

right on... off to ebay i go... my goal for this winter is to actually get my sled to turn the rpm it should... the guy i bought it from had heel clickers installed by F&S in hanover, he said not to mess with the clutching but i think he is wrong because it is down like 1000 rpm (something might be wore out)

You can still order the 8DN-00 $67.00 each. I picked up a couple of good used spares on ebay just the other day for $15.00 each.
Where did you find the 8DN-00's at?There was a couple on eBay towards the end of the winter that I didn't bid on and of course someone else got them but haven't been able to find any since.

partzilla, not yamaha. 00 belt is discontinued. go to you local yamaha dealer and try and order a 00, you will get a 01. tyler, heel clickers easy to tune. replace both springs in your clutches first, than if it still dose it , you need extra tuneing washers and screws. and a gram scale. those are good weight. don,t give up on them. 3:16 (yammie tony)

Partzilla sells OEM yamaha parts, it shows that the 00 is still available. I'm going to give them a call on monday to see for sure.

No such belt anymore, like 3:16 said . Trust me I search high and low. E bay is the only place left to get old ones "new". If they have them let us know.

I'm sure you're right on that but I'll call anyways just for the heck of it. I do know of a place that has alot of NOS yam parts near where I live I'll see if he's got any.
How much better are the 00 to the 01? I have both and didn't notice any difference when using either one

im not giving up on them, i just dont believe the setup is as good as it can get like the previous owner claimed... i haven't even inspected the setup... i just have jumped on it and rode what little snow we have got the last 2 years....
last year i tore a new OEM belt up in like 20 miles, and that was a real waste of money... so this year i want to figure out what is going on with this drivetrain.
it may have been a defective belt tho since i finished the 140mile ride on a used aftermarket belt and didnt have a problem
