Not any different if your chain breaks. At least if your belt breaks it doesn't have much if any chance of completely locking the driveline up and ejecting you rapidly fast.

Why not copy cat and doo, and put the brake on the drive shaft?

For the "glad I didn't upgrade last yr" guys.......l say, man I'm glad I didn't wait to buy a pro..
2011 & 2012 pro's have been the funnest sled I've ever ridden. 2 yrs of the best riding I've ever had. 2013 looks to be even better, but that in no way makes 2011-2012 turds.... Glad to see Polaris really trying to improve and not sitting fat & sassy falling sleep.
Can't wait to c what else they have up their sleeve, but if I was "stuck" with a 2011 Pro, I'd still be grinning ear to ear..

Never had any issue with the CMX belt drive in deep snow and it's not covered either. Brake rotor really should have been on the driveshaft though these belts rarely break...
I just got out of the bathroom, what did I miss!!!!
Um....I'm going back to the bathroom with these pictures...I'm going to be awhile!
LMAO...

2012 with 36 miles and a BD intercooled turbo is going to be up for sale. Im ready to swap to the 13 and its not even orderable yet? Cool sled lots of trick parts there to ponder. Right on Polaris.

Maybe if you ride yours on the pavement it could buck you off but locking the track up in the snow isnt automatic ejection in most cases. Im not one bit nervous about the brake location.
I had a 2002 Mountain cat lock up the chaincase and it was painfull. I had some serious bruising on the ribs and chest. Had I been going faster I probably would have been thrown into a tree.
Yeah the sled doesn't stop instantly but it is quick enough that you can get hurt pretty bad, not to mention the damage to the sled.

You'be never been tossed over the bars or off the side just from hitting the damn kill switch? Instant track lock up is far worse lol.
Now, I don't think the belts will be a strength or safety issue what so ever. But I'm sure they will come covered to keep fingers and other flying debris out of them.

A few years ago, every Mountain Max in our group at some point broke a chain. It would explode the case and eject the rider right over the handle bars.
