Karata belt drive

[carpetman]

Ok, I'm about to make the plunge to buy a belt drive, I'm a full beliver that "The Bigger the Better " Karata seems the way to go and yes they give a good discount for members. I need your thoughts on size, some say a 5" is to big and will rub the road. Your thoughts if your running one TKS:

I ordered a 3" kit today from Jim. When I called, Jim made sure all my questions were answered. The style of OBBS I wanted was not in stock but he gave me several options for a replacement. Great service and I did not feel rushed to get off the phone. Be sure to mention that your a member of the forum.

This is the 4". With the 5" you won't need a kickstand, you can just get off the bike and it will stand upright:roll:
