Gen 1 With Belt Conversion

[ionescu_george_bz]

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..?

• i'm not sure about the MOT, i live in Germany and the kit is TÜV approved so no issues here
  
• i will make some more pictures but the closest i've seen it so far is at the crankcase (see pictures)
  
• yes it is reversible because everything just mounts on what you have, nothing is cut or modified (except the tap for the bottom guard bolt?)
  
• half sprocket half pulley? no it's a pulley mounted on the OEM pinion carrier an it is made from hardened aluminium
  
• for alignment use the same method like a chain (markings on the swing arm) and for tensioning the same procedure like on a Harley (the belt is almost the same as the belt on some '97-'03 Harleys)
  
• it has a screw tapped (i think) in the swing arm underneath (see picture)
  
• i'm not sure, i have to see the teeth count
