Why not? Modern belts are great if done right.

Re: Dream SV design
 

Agreed modern belt drive is very very efficient and quiet, id have a belt drive anyday, plus it if snaps its got much less chance of locking your back wheel up or taking your leg off.

Yes, but so fugly!

No, not for me.

Fair play, it's very ugly...

Re: Dream SV design
 

My dream SV is my bike, with a fuel injected motor just because of the idling issue when the engine is cold, in winter.

And possibly some more adjustment on the suspension to make the bike a little more capable of cornering when im two-up with full luggage

Other than that, i love my SV the way it is :D

Re: Dream SV design
 

Agreed, that doesn't look too bad, but no covers there to stop stones getting caught in the belt:D

Re: Dream SV design
 

I was riding behind a Buell that lost it`s belt drive , wasn`t a pretty sight and my mate just about kept it upright with his mrs on the back . I`ll take my chances with a good old metal chain anyday of the week . I know there is now going to be a debate about the merits and minuses of both but put it this way ........ if you see somebody get eaten by a shark , you can`t convince them that sharks are really ok and groovy kind of dudes just going about their business .

Long story short , the replacement/fitting costs on the Buell were so high that my mate didn`t bother and sold it as it was and bought a GSXR .
