BDL’s all-new design includes a 52-tooth
front pulley and 69-tooth rear pulley that
are both two inches wide and driven with
their specially designed 142-tooth belt.
Other features include a specially designed ring gear for easy starting and of
course their Ball Bearing Lock-up Clutch
provides positive engagement with minimal clutch pull. BDL fi nished the kit off
with their unique side guard and rear pulley cover, both made from 6061 billet aluminum, precision machined and highly
polished. This belt drive is available in four
fi nishes: polished, black, clear anodized
and chrome.
