Well, that's certainly different. But begs the question why? Unless the previous owner was allergic to chain lube .
Well the bigger questions that spring to mind are - 1-how safe is it, will it pass an MOT?how close does the belt pass to the frame, swingarm and the front pulley to the front sprocket cover.Is the mod reversible?How good is the rear pulley mod? as it looks like its half sprocket and half pully.What are the guidelines for aligning and tensioning the belt?I can see the bottom belt guide cleverly re-uses the mounting hole for the original chain guide, but where does it bolt to near the rear sprocket/pulley end..?How does this mod effect the accuracy of the speedo..?I guessing that there is next to no drive train noise now..?
Belts are fine to a point, power is not their forte i.e. an FZ1000 (140ish) is pushing it I'd say.Check adjustment about 5k, Harley's are said to last up to 100k although I've never seen that. Average 30 - 40k like a chain it depends on power and how you ride it, they're so much quieter too. There's no snatch in the belt, so much smoother ride, gear change and low maintenance, that's often their down fall, owners for get them and they snap. They just don't like too much water/mud/grit/sand or too many wheelies, they're also impossible to fix if they snap, replacement only, no adding a link to get you home etc.
