4g T-belt
About a week ago I was told they would be shipped at the end of May and would take about a month to get here. 50 to USA and 50 to Australia. That's for the transmision that works with the motor you see it featured on the web page with. The honda adapted drive system won't have a sample to test for 90 more days or so. So ya, probably late fall for a honda trani. Also the honda one won't have the same bearings on the clutch bell and shaft, so I'm told it may have a bushing, don't know why. The HS motor has the clutch built in to the motor houseing. Look at the parts page for the 4g and you will see the difference in clutch bell design. Honda will have the new 3 pole clutch just like the HS. Other than the clutch bell design, I think the rest will be the same. Have to wait and see. The video on youtube shows the torque it has with the 5 to 1 ratio and that may be with the 11 tooth. Put the 10 tooth on and hold on to your hat. Apparently Don designed it so a spanner wrench could be used to tighten the belt to go without a third belt tensioning wheel. I do see what you mean about the small area of contact with the front gear, a loose belt would maybe slip easy on that. Hopefully the belt is quality enough to not stretch too much. Hopefully it will be available alone without a kit, for everyone with a finished bike who just want's to upgrade the drive system.
I agree with Houghmade. I would take off the cover and go with the exposed look, much cooler.
