I received 3 Gates Trail Runner belts from VJB I was reading the instructions inside the cardboard that wraps around the belt. " All snowmobile belts yeld better performance and longer life if they are broken in under moderate riding conditions. Gates strongly suggest that the first 10-15 miles of operation be at maximum of one half of full throttle amd no more than 50 MPH. During the break in peroid, frequent over the speed ratio range is also required (ride so that the transmission system shifts often)."
