If/when I convert it to chain, I'l be able to pull out a repair kit and properly fix the chain on the side of the road. The last belt drive bike you could do that with was the Silent Gray Fellow Harley, which had a stitched, segmented leather drive belt. HAH! When your belt shears in middle of nowhere Arkansa on the way to the rally next year, feel free to call my chain drive "Salvage" for a tow. I might even have the 1.5mm overbore cylinder/piston/ring kit figure out by then.

PS: You wouldn't hapen to have an old HD Keihin or Mikuni floating around would you? I need a 45mm carb set up, the stocker is too small for nitrous oxide.
