That may be the problem. I have no idea what is offered in Norway, but in the US we can get Kevlar reinforced belts, which come standard on most Harley's now I think. Another thing to consider is how do you drive? Do you do many "clutch snap" starts? That's where you rev up the motor and dump the clutch and do cool wheelies, as if you were on a drag strip. The problem is, NO BELT will last long if you do that very often. Doing "burnouts" can be just as bad. Remember, all things in moderation, except moderation, which should be used sparingly...;D
