I'm running one on my '06 Train. Love it! It's actually built by BDL and has there logo all over the internal parts. Got a buddy who just installed the BDL unit on his '09 Train with a 107" built motor. He was concerned about his stock clutch prior and even had some slipping issues. He hasn't had any issues with the BDL unit and he's been known to ride pretty hard at times.

Black Friday Discounted pricing on all belt drives from me. I am thinking of getting one too, just not sure if it will fit with my true duals. PM or email em for pricing on what you want.

I have a hook-up on PM products, and have been eye balling their OP as well. Nice looking unit.

Had a BDL on my last bike and loved it. A black BDL is on the list for my current softail. The PM version is exactly what outlaw said a BDL with some PM covers and there name all over it.

I will also add that BDL makes a good product. I am running an internal one on my EVO but I keep the derby and inspection covers off. I have plans to vent it some more. Just wanted to be a little different. And yes I have already been asked how I keep fluid in it.

Besides the fact they simply look bad, as in really - really neat, is there any real advantage to having one?
