wow, very nice. Is the belt drive something you have created, or is it part of the promotive kit now?

I assume the belt will be quieter?

How many miles are you looking between changes?

Amazing build

The belt is our own idea, it will be quieter.

For how long it will last we will see.

I spoke to gays who build chopper with belt drive and they said that wont be any major problem with it.

Over two weeks without updates? I am itching to see how the belt gets on!

Would make a bike engine more of a usable car IMO

NICE! 

 

The belt looks amazing, but I'm interested in the seats, shifter and aluminum work! did you do all that yourself? If not, where are those seats from?!

The seats look like Kirkey Racing to me

Have you taken this out for a spin. Would be interesting to know the sound difference. Did you make the tensioners the same circumference as the sprockets to keep the gearing the same?
