    final drive 101

    Could you explain your reasoning behind the chain being more efficent because the fact that the belt is lighter is a compeling argument.

    final drive 101

    My new project

    What exactly is the plan for the bike? IMO something like this would eat up alot of time just hunting parts alone. Wouldn't be easier to make your own motor mounts and use a crete motor or something along those lines. I'm not saying go run for the latest s&s crete engine that has been done...
