It's always something..... Belt issue
After swapping to the 20mm belt and getting the 133 tooth that is on the newer night train it's to long... I figured out I need a 128 tooth! Guess what.... NOBODY makes a 20mm 128 tooth belt that I can find... Any help?

As I understand, H-D has 132, 133 and 135 length for the 20 mm secondary belt.
Does anyone know if it is possible to get a 128 T 20 mm belt somewhere?

Want to keep gearing as is, wheel base too short.

had this problem once building a custom... got a 127T direct from Carlisle (Panther)... don't think they do a 128T though
try Carlisle, Gates, Veyance Technologies, etc. direct... you're looking for a Synchronous Drive belt, preferably kevlar with a 14mm pitch, 128 teeth, 20mm top width

Then I searched carlisle drive belts and found their catalog.

Page 30 and 36 should help you out a bit. Do some more research though, mine is just based on the info in the copied post above and a solitary google search.

Thanks I found that too, I called all three of these companies. Carlisle said they would have someone call me back.... The other two said they didn't have anything for me. If this belt is this hard to find what happens if it breaks on a ride? Then I'm screwed! The chain is sounding better and better.
