  • “ Wadda Wadda “ Belt

    Does anyone have any information on the “ Wadda Wadda “ V-belt used on early American motorcycles. Any copies of advertisements, or info from the company who made them. They certainly could have been used on other types of early machinery.

          Watawata was just one of the many types of drive belting.
          Here's a couple more.
          The segmented type of belt went round the smaller front pulleys a lot better than the solid styles which tended to go out of shape when driven round the small curves of most engine pulleys Whittle belting0001.jpgDunlop belting0001.jpg

            Yes I am familiar with those types of V belts and there are others made here in the states. I was specifically looking for information on the “ WattaWatta belt. Thanks again for your quick response.
