Kaihong Motorcycle Carbon Timing Belt is designed for motorcycle drive systems that require clean, quiet, and stable power transmission. Reinforced with high-strength carbon fiber cords and HNBR rubber, it offers low elongation, strong tooth engagement, excellent wear resistance, and lubrication-free operation. It is suitable for scooters, cruisers, touring motorcycles, electric motorcycles, and custom builds, helping reduce routine maintenance while maintaining reliable performance under demanding riding conditions.
Kaihong Motorcycle Carbon Timing Belt is developed for motorcycle drive systems where low weight, stable power transmission, and reduced maintenance are important. The belt uses a composite structure combining HNBR rubber, high-strength carbon fiber tensile cords, and a wear-resistant nylon tooth surface.
Compared with conventional chain drives, the belt operates without lubrication and avoids metal-to-metal contact, helping reduce running noise, oil contamination, and routine maintenance. Its low elongation and stable tooth engagement also support consistent power transmission during acceleration and long-distance riding.
Material Structure
1. HNBR Rubber
The Motorcycle Carbon Timing Belt body uses HNBR rubber for resistance to heat, oil, aging, and repeated mechanical loading. This makes it suitable for motorcycle environments exposed to engine heat, vibration, and road contaminants.
2. Carbon Fiber Cord
High-strength carbon fiber forms the main tensile member. Its low elongation helps maintain belt tension and reduces the risk of tooth skipping during rapid acceleration or changes in load.
3. Nylon Tooth Fabric
The tooth surface uses a wear-resistant nylon fabric to reduce friction and protect the molded teeth during repeated pulley engagement. The material also contributes to smoother and quieter operation.
4. Reinforced Back Layer
A nylon-reinforced back structure improves transverse strength and protects the belt body against external wear. The construction is suitable for motorcycle drive layouts involving multiple pulleys.

Performance Advantages
1. Low Elongation
Carbon fiber reinforcement provides high tensile strength with very low elongation. The belt can therefore maintain more stable dimensions during long-term operation.
2. Quiet Running
The synchronous tooth engagement avoids the metal-on-metal contact associated with conventional chains. This helps reduce drivetrain noise, particularly on electric motorcycles and urban commuter bikes.
3. No Lubrication
The belt does not require chain oil. This eliminates regular lubrication work and reduces the possibility of oil splashing onto wheels, frames, or rider clothing.
4. Heat and Chemical Resistance
The HNBR compound is designed to maintain mechanical properties under elevated temperatures and exposure to common motorcycle contaminants such as oil and fuel.
5. Stable Power Transfer
The optimized 11 mm tooth profile is designed for reliable pulley engagement. Combined with the carbon tensile cord, it helps maintain synchronized transmission and reduce tooth jumping.
6. Lightweight Construction
The composite structure reduces the mass of the transmission component compared with conventional metal chain systems. Lower rotating mass can contribute to responsive drivetrain behavior.
Motorcycle Applications
1. Commuter Motorcycles
For small-displacement motorcycles and scooters used in frequent stop-and-go traffic, the belt provides a clean and low-maintenance alternative to conventional chains.
The supplied application examples include QINGQI SUZUKI UY125, Haojue UHR, Honda NS125RX, and Yamaha Cygnus Ray ZR (JOG i).
2. Cruiser Motorcycles
Mid-displacement cruiser and bobber models can benefit from the quiet operation and clean appearance of belt transmission. Example models include Benda Jinjila 300, Longjia V-Bob, VOGE CU525, SWM GV650, QJMotor Flash 300/350, and Harley-Davidson Street 750.
3. Touring Motorcycles
Long-distance motorcycles require stable transmission performance across different weather and road conditions. The supplied application examples include Honda NC750X ADV and BMW R1250GS, where reduced lubrication requirements can simplify long-distance maintenance.
4. Performance Motorcycles
For larger-displacement motorcycles, the high tensile strength and low elongation of carbon fiber reinforcement support applications involving rapid acceleration and higher drivetrain loads.
5. Electric Motorcycles
Electric motorcycles benefit particularly from low transmission noise. The belt's lubrication-free construction also keeps the drivetrain clean and reduces routine maintenance requirements.
6. Custom Motorcycles
Cafe racers, bobbers, retro motorcycles, and other custom builds can use belt transmission where a clean appearance and simplified maintenance are priorities.
CHT Series Features
1. High Tooth Shear Strength
The reinforced tooth structure provides high shear resistance, helping reduce tooth damage and skipping under demanding operating conditions.
2. Carbon Reinforcement
The carbon cord combines high tensile strength with very low elongation, supporting stable transmission over extended service periods.
3. Self-Lubricating Tooth Surface
The specialized tooth fabric provides low-friction characteristics without requiring external lubrication.
4. Anti-Static Design
The Motorcycle Carbon Timing Belt body incorporates an antistatic design for applications where control of static accumulation is required.
5. Flame Retardant Option
Flame-retardant characteristics are available for applications where additional safety requirements need to be considered.
Installation and Maintenance
1. Check Pulley Alignment
The driving and driven pulleys should remain properly aligned. Misalignment can cause uneven tooth wear and edge damage.
2. Set Correct Tension
Belt tension should follow the motorcycle manufacturer's specification. Excessive tension increases bearing loads, while insufficient tension may cause vibration or tooth skipping.
3. Inspect the Tooth Surface
During routine service, check for tooth wear, cracking, fabric damage, or abnormal deformation. Replace the belt if significant damage is found.
4. Keep the Drive Clean
Although lubrication is unnecessary, the pulley and belt should be kept free from excessive oil, mud, stones, and other contaminants.
5. Check After Installation
After installation, rotate the pulley manually to confirm correct tooth engagement before operating the motorcycle at normal speed.
