2️⃣ Watch the vlog and find out if the belt drive survives an extreme stunt riding test!
I pushed the new Carbon Drive Moto X9 to the limit with hours of intense testing on my KTM 790 Duke — wheelies, burnouts, hard landings… everything.
The belt drive saves 1029g (36.3 oz) compared to a chain, but does the performance hold up?
Your comments said it would snap — so I put it to the test.
This is a real, honest review from actual riding: from weight savings and durability to stunt performance. I break down all the pros and cons to see if the chain is still king — or if the belt has finally leveled up.

I'm Rok Bagoros, the only KTM official pro freestyle street bike rider. I began riding bikes when I was 17 and turned pro after 4 years when I signed a contract with KTM Factory. Since then my life changed and I started to travel the world to perform my freestyle live shows and competitions. On my channel, I'll show you what my life looks like on and off the bike.
I performed in Asia, South America, Europe and the Middle East at major events like MotoGP, Red Bull Air Race, DTM, Salon de Automovil Chile, International Moto Expo, EICMA, etc. On the other side, I have been a stunt double for different artists like Robbie Williams and Neisha. My motorsport idols are Ken Block, Travis Pastrana, and Chris Pfeiffer.
