Scootworks New "WideDrive"
Belt Drive Kit for the Kawasaki Vulcan 800A, 800 Classic & Drifter
800
The new
generation "WideDrive" belt drive kit gives that great WIDE
look with an added bonus of extra performance....
- New
"WideDrive" belt is 50% wider than our "Classic"
belt drive kit belting
- Available in
polished chrome or black rear pulley.
- Increases the power
handling capacity over our "Classic" belt drive due to the
wider belt.
- Lower highway RPM's,
and increased gas mileage with the 2.22:1 final drive ratio, just like on our
"Classic" belt drive kit.
- No more cleaning of
grease and oil from your rear wheel, no more of that nasty chain
maintenance.
- Kit includes the
WideDrive front pulley assembly, WideDrive rear pulley, WideDrive
Powergrip belt, tension gauge, and detailed installation
instruction manual.

Comparison of Chain
Drive vs. Our Belt Drive
| CHAIN
DRIVE |
BELT
DRIVE |
| Requires
lubrication every 600 miles |
No
lubrication required |
|
Always
has backlash, even when adjusted correctly.
|
No final
drive induced backlash, even when accelerating or
decelerating.
|
|
If chain
breaks, it can knot, causing damage to your engine, or even
worse, can lock up your rear wheel.
|
If the
belt breaks, it just comes off. Replacement of the belt is
very inexpensive (see above).
|
|
Constantly
cleaning grease and grime from your rear wheel, rim and hub.
Maintaining whitewall tires is a nightmare!
|
NO MORE
GREASE ON YOUR REAR WHEEL, RIM OR HUB FROM THE FINAL DRIVE!
Beautiful whitewalls and your clean bike stays that way...
CLEAN!
|
| Typical
chain efficiency is approx. 80% when new, and deteriorates
throughout it's life. |
Typical
belt efficiency is approx. 98%. Due to change of pulley
ratios, the engine RPMs are reduced by 11%. This resulted in
an increase of gas mileage by approx. 14% on our test bikes.
The reduction in RPM's for a '95 or early '96 model will be
greater...approx. 23%! (The early models used a 16t front and
46t rear sprocket)
|
|
Chain
drives are very noisy, especially as they wear.
|
Our
Belt Drive is nearly silent! |
