Thanks,
Keith

not trying to step on any of the fine sponsors we have here toes. but pm saintly he has put together a kit for far less money then some of our sponsors. many of the members here are using them.
are you switching to a chain???? did that rear pulley not work out for you?.. if not i would gladly take it off of your hands

if you're racing, sorry, but steer clear of saintly's. the idler sprocket bracket bent to shit about 2 laps into my first practice. may work great on the street, but the track's a different story.

Gary - The pulley is working perfectly! We have analyzed and tested it ad nauseam and are about ready to go into production with it.

Brian - It was great meeting you at Homecoming. You nailed it! My race bike has the 2003 belt system on it. I'm trying to decide whether to upgrade to the newest belt (with our new pulley) or go to a chain.

Rocco - The idler sprocket bracket failure is a concern. What bike did you have it on and what mods have you made to the motor?

Thanks guys,
Keith

The bracket bent where the adjuster mounts to it. Bike is bone stock. After beating it flat, we put a heavy washer on it and it still bent.

Keep a eye on the right side wheel bearing... the chain drive will thrash it...
Trust me. I know....
