An open belt, or an enclosed belt?

Pro: Easy adjustment
1 less hole to put $10/qt oil in (plus your derby gasket $7)
Looks and sounds cool
Con: You get to hear the same questions over and over (Aren't you scared you're going to get your pants caught in there?
Why does it sound like that? I even get the "what does that do?" etc.)
Can get pricey
I like mine and would recommend it. If you want to know anything else just ask me.
