I really like what I see. Better aerodynamics, greater strengh, button sliders, interchangeable parts with YVXC, roller secondary! The casting sure looks good! This thread alone make me want one!

And look how high the belt is going on the primary! it's using the whole clutch, looks to be working perfect at least the one in the picture above.

I am hearing the chain-case is updated with solid mounts. Here are some pics of the clutches.

In the clutch bay area where you see both clutches it appears as though it has some sort of TCL behind the clutches,is this an old pic or does it have the motor hooked solid? Also the primary ramp looks like it may run some heavy rivets,unless them three holes are deceiving to look at?

I thought it was a new belt but I'm being told 8jp viper belt.
How pricy is that belt compared to the old 8DN belt,which is now 80 bucks compared to 60 for years.
