Product Details

Gates engineered this G-Force CVT Belt for automatic continuously variable transmissions that see hard use on trails and in work conditions. The RVS-R cross section, 26-degree angle, 33 mm top width, and 44.578-inch outside circumference define the belt’s physical profile for the intended application. If you are servicing a Honda, Yamaha, or similar powersport CVT platform that uses this specification, 28G4340 provides a catalog-matched replacement option built around OE performance targets.

The G-Force WorkHorse line focuses on durability for demanding riding and utility use, making it a practical choice for CVT belt replacement when the original belt shows wear, glazing, or loss of drive consistency. This part cross-references 8NU-E7641-01 and 0823-683 for the same application.

Common Problems This Belt Can Address

• CVT belt slip during acceleration
• Loss of smooth power transfer in automatic CVT systems
• Visible belt wear, cracking, or glazing
• Reduced drivability under load or on rough terrain
• Noise or inconsistent engagement from a worn transmission belt

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the belt dimensions, cross section, and application before installation. Inspect the CVT pulleys, clutch surfaces, and belt housing for wear or contamination, and replace the belt only after the drive system is clean and aligned. For Honda, Yamaha, and other powersport CVT applications, confirm the OEM belt specification against part number 28G4340 to ensure proper fitment.

Quality Assurance

Gates manufactures the G-Force WorkHorse line to OE performance standards for CVT service. Use this belt when the application calls for a durable replacement in a powersport automatic continuously variable transmission system.
