Belt Drive

[Lodge]

I've read somewhere that you can lubricate your final drive belt with silicon spray. Is this a fact?.

3 minutes 40 seconds in.

Spray-on "belt dressing" is used in industrial applications to stop flat or tapered drive belts squealing, slipping and wear. NEVER on toothed belts.

Don't even think about it.

Belts don't need lube! That's the beauty of a Harley's final drive, just tension correctly, and clean with the same stuff as you wash yer bike with, anything else is BS

Many many thanks for your replies. I will certainly leave the belt dry.
