Question
I know you work on harleys but i have a 113 S&S on a bourget.What is the advantages and or dissavatage of putting a open belt drive on

Answer
Putting a open drive belt on is cosmetic. Some riders liek the looks of them. They dont really give you more power. Its one of those things yuo either like or dont like. the only thing I suggest is to get one with a guard. you dont want to get a pants leg caught in the belt!
Good luck and happy riding
