Went on Amazon to purchase two of these belts, which I did.
A few minutes later I checked to make sure they fit the year, make and model, and to my surprise it shows that these particular belts do not fit!
I got my info from these message boards. I ordered the T-275 belts.
Error on Amazon or actually I need other belts to fit. Gates looks like a winner but I must make sure that I pick the right ones.

I'm 99.9% sure that all Valkyrie models take the same belts.  :cooldude:

That is the same belts that work on the GL 1500 Goldwing.

All 275 belts are the same (ok, not all). It's like bearings, if the # match, you've the right one.

I'm not testifying to the correct belt size, but I will testify that in all my considerable dealings with Amazon, I have had them come up on the page and tell me something will not fit (or properly match up), when it is absolutely the right part and does fit (when it arrives).  Not just motorcycles either.

Amazon webpage opinions on fitment (for anything) are only accurate some of the time.   (i.e. not to be trusted)

I have Gates 275s on both my bikes.
