I was thinking about the same thing before I got laid off. So if someone tries it, keep us posted.

Chop On,

so i was looking at the two wheels the v rod wheel is definatley wider not sure of the actual width of the v rod ??????? so the milloin dollar question that keeps me awake at night is how in the world do you deal with the alinement of the drive belt since you dont want to put the wheel off center i.m.o on my shovel head i offset the iner primary to space the trans the extra width needed to put the wider back wheel on . so on our twin cams this is not an option so im thinking a narower belt and sprocket is the answer and the trans drive sprocket *** well ?????? whats your thoughts ??????
