Description
For over a century, Gates has driven innovation in belt technology to power the machines that move you. Gates® G-Force C12 CVT belt drives are engineered to navigate the toughest off-road trails with power and efficiency. The industry's first CVT belt with carbon tensile cord also features a trapezoid top-notch and rounded cog design for superior flexibility and heat dissipation, along with a unique gum adhesion that reduces fiber pullout within the belt extending the life of the belt. Gates combines material science and process engineering to create innovative products that provide performance, reliability and the strength to withstand even the most challenging off-road environments. Continuous innovation isn't just what we do. It's who we are.
WHY G-FORCE C12 BELTS?
- STRENGTH: The first CVT belt utilizing carbon tensile cord for minimal stretch and extraordinary strength.
- FLEXIBILITY: High-performance neoprene with a trapezoidal topnotch and rounded bottom cog design maximizing heat control and flexibility.

Vehicle Information
KYMCO MXU 450 ATV (2012-2023)
The KYMCO MXU 450, an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) produced from 2012 to 2023, is known for its robust and consistent platform. Throughout its production run, it featured a reliable 443cc liquid-cooled, SOHC, 4-stroke, 4-valve single-cylinder engine with electronic fuel injection (EFI). This core engine design remained largely unchanged, providing a dependable power source for utility and recreational use. While the fundamental engine and chassis design stayed consistent, minor refinements and trim variations were introduced over the years. Reported horsepower figures saw a slight adjustment, moving from approximately 33 HP in earlier models (2012-2018) to around 31.5 HP in later models (2019-2023). Additionally, the fuel capacity experienced a minor revision. KYMCO offered various trim levels, including the base MXU 450i, the MXU 450i LE (Limited Edition) with special styling or features, the MXU 450i Camo with camouflage bodywork, and the MXU 450i LE Prime, which included premium upgrades like Kaifa gas shocks. These variations primarily focused on aesthetics and feature enhancements rather than significant generational overhauls. FAQ:
