Chin spoiler

[carpetman]

I thought I would post a couple of pks of my chin spoiler. I had to take it off to repair a leak. I had to custom make the bracket. After a couple of test rides over the last few days, I can tell you it want last all season. My purge nossel is about 3/4 " lower than the spoiler. If you put the front break on hard it rubs. I knew I was in trouble when a family of ants were crossing the hwy. and one of them raised his head, I took it off.

So your not running an OBS on your belt drive?

NO, Most of my power ( NOS ) comes in at 3rd or 4th gear, Forks can't stand wheelies. I don't feel its necessary. If you do hard starts I would recomend the supports ( This is Jims advice from Karata

So can I race you thru 2nd gear? Thats my only shot.

Love the Karata. That's the way I would go if I went with a belt drive. Same pulley covers...

I just love the the whine and the looks. The 4" I think is just right I was going to go for the 5 but gald I got the 4. The only problem I think you would have with the 5, is when your backing up or sitting still your leg is right in the middle of the belt. I'm really thinking ahead. a few beers and there goes the pants. Come to think of it that what happens to the girls

Carpetman,

That looks awesome without the OBS. How does the 4 inch belt affect your foot position? I am pulling the trigger on one this spring and don't know which way to go. I'm only 5'8" and don't want to have to crank my ankle around to get my foot on the peg. Then again, I have always been of the mindset that looks come before comfort, and your set up look incredible! I was looking at all of the different plates for the OBS, but I think it looks bad ass without one. :2thumbs:
