"The ALL-NEW EVO-8S 2 3/4" belt drive fits 2007-2009 Softail models. Also included in this drive kit is BDL's NEW Ball Bearing Clutch system!"

It's on their website

When you convert chain to open belt, are you running a dry clutch? I am just curious

Is it recommended to have a cover on it? Is it common for rocks to bounce off the road and end up between the belt and the pulley?
