:yup: :yt:

running 1/2 US gearing on my X1 with the larger rear sprocket (mines a Sportster one )
however you need a mate with a lathe to open out the central hole slightly 2mm IIRC ?
I only used the Sportster pulley as it was easier to source :yup:

Thanks for the link, have spoken to the seller and he doesn't know year of manafacture so I'm inclined to go for a new belt.

Is the one I shared above going to be ok?

I'm not sure, it's listed as a timing belt rather than a final drive belt, I've always bought the genuine item when I've had to get one.

Fair point on that :yup:

Also revisited the Spareto page and saw that the belt is actually too wide at an inch and a half, should be an inch and an eighth!........must of man looked the first time :roll:
