Thanks CJ. Finishing off the primary drive today. The primary drive is from Bob Newby Racing and it has been another labour intense job to fit, mostly because I changed my mind and decided to run the stock Vincent primary cover.
Bob Newby suggested fabricating a flat one in sheet aluminium, which is what most people do when running these 40 mm belts.
That was my plan as well at first, but had a spare Vincent cover and it looks like a piece of sculpture, so I had to have a try at fitting it.
The problem is that the New by clutch drum and engine pulley are larger in diameter than the Vincent items, plus stick out more.
First trial of the pulleys using the provided 5/8" wide distance pieces. With the distance pieces in place the splines on the pulleys sit about right on the shaft splines but almost the entire width of the pulleys is protruding from the crankcase joint.
To use the stock cover and have it look decent I need to shift the line of the pulleys in as much as possible.
