Belt should be easy because all of the crossbars are removable one by one and the belt will just slip in. Probably don't even have to remove the tire, just raise it off the ground. This only applies to my Sportster, can't tell you about other bikes with left hand drive. I've examined it carefully and figured out the belt replacement. The rotor would be a little harder but the axle comes apart if you take the crossbar bolts out on the rotor side only.

I see by his picture changing that drive belt looks really easy. A sporty has the drive on the other side away from the primary so that's not in play. I sure wish mysoftail was like that changing a drive belt on this is an all day job. Dealers get $450 to do it. I sure am happy the belt lasts for 50,000 miles plus.

I have the same front wheel as you have. Does the back wheel with the red strip complement your orange tank? I plan on ordering the Frankenstein kit tomorrow and am worried about the red. I prefer to have their previous black and chrome wheels. I plan to ask if they are still available.
The red stripe on my rear wheel pretty much matches the red stripe around the black accents on the anniversary paint job. It's reflective, looks nice and is fairly low key. I don't think you would be disappointed with it. Not an exact match for the front but close enough.
