yep, the helmet looks great and fits exactly my head... even my wife fell in love with it, looks like I have to wear it for her in special situations... ;-)Nice show! A lot of unusual and rare bikes for sure. Did you show yours? Can you model the helmet and goggles for us? I want to see the real deal worn.
Page 25 post 245 has the Picture #4 of 5 (bike on tank say Lion Peugeo, you see what I know as a Link-Belt I got at Harbor Freight made in Italy or another brand Power Twist Plus I found while at Grainger that looks same, cost a bit more made in USA.and some pics from the show, the Peugeot V2 engine is very nice, will try to find one for a next build!
in post 248 first pic you can see the belt in a close up shot!Page 26 post 245 has the Picture #4 of 5, you see what I know as a Link-Belt I got at Harbor Freight made in Italy or another brand Power Twist Plus I found while at Grainger that looks same, cost a bit more made in USA.
I could see it on the opposite side of the bike through the frame. Also on the closer side of the frame by the saddle bag or carrier, an extra type section belt coiled up and tied on the side.
They are I guess then able to work well, I've not yet tried mine on my current build yet. I thought there would not be as much grab (friction) to get the pulleys to turn the wheel and would slip under load, but I checked and only a small portion of either regular or section belt actually contacts the pulley. It is only near the top edge of the pulley, so I see why there should be no practical difference.
Thanks for those pictures.... there was one bike a post or two below that had a shaft drive I saw. That's a find!
That leather cap really takes the cake Hope it fits right.

WHOA! Too much info there LOL, just make sure when you post the pics of you wearing the helmet, that they are of you in the garage and not the bedroom, Thanks hahahahayep, the helmet looks great and fits exactly my head... even my wife fell in love with it, looks like I have to wear it for her in special situations... ;-)
when winter ends, that will probably be in march/april. At the moment we have 12F, a bit too cold for riding motorbikes ;-)Nice job! when do you think you'll be able to share that first ride with everyone?
