working my way through the wiring... Due to LED indicators and lights there are no relays on this build so it's quite simple...I am using a very bright LED for the stand down warning, switched by an angle switch... it remains to be seen if it tolerates the vibration!  |

It looks "light" and capable  Especially the frame/tank/seat lines work well. What are the maintenance requirements for belt drive? |

Depends...  Some last forever, but the way you ride I'd guess half that long.  |

Looking really good! "Especially the frame/tank/seat lines work well." +1. Your best work so far. Only thing, red and orange don't mix well IMHO, do the the shock spring black. |

Thanks! the belts seem to last and last if they are tensioned right... the problem is the distance between to gearbox output and the swinging arm pivot... the correct way to sension them is to disconnect the shocker (one bolt) and move the swinging arm to its full extent... then tension the belt so its "just" tight. it does feel a little loose when its all connected back up, but unless you do this it causes strain on the bearings and belt we all know that a light and fast throttle adds at least 20 BHP to a bike! As I am using a fast action throttle I needed to make some new cables… One tip I picked up is when you make the cables, cut the outer to expose the nylon inner so that it extends up through the bends so the whole thing is nylon lined  |

well its finally finished... After finishing a build I always drag everything out of the garage to have a good clean up... so here they are lined up on the drive! My wife came out and said I needed therapy... I said this IS my therapy... I probably wont do another build this winter.. that gives me plenty of time to sort a project for next one!  |
