Description: A belt drive conversion kit for the Royal Enfield Interceptor and Continental 650 Twins, consisting of a genuine Gates Poly Chain Carbon GT belt, with both front and rear pullies. Fits the 650 Interceptor, and 650 Continental GT models - the Super Meteor 650 is a different model Quiet, smooth, no more adjustment issues, no more oily mess, no carrying chain lube on a trip, lighter, and lower long term cost due to extended belt and pulley life when compared to a chain drive. Two gear ratios are available - the stock 2.5:1 finial drive ratio and the more popular "16T" front sprocket mod resulting in a higher 2.375:1To a large extent, the choice of ratios is a personal preference, driven by ones riding style and local conditions. I prefer the higher ratio "16T mod" in order to keep the engine RPM a little lower at highway speeds, and to be able to keep up with my mates without flogging the engine to death. Others prefer the shorter stock gearing - horses for courses The belt is the latest Generation 4, Gates Poly Chain Carbon GT, and included in the kit. This is the same belt used by major motorcycle manufacturers in their OEM belt drive models. A common Gates part, used in thousands of industrial applications and readily available from Gates Dealers worldwideThe rear pulley is CNC machined from 6061-T6 aluminium, and is then Type III hard anodized in satin black. This results in a durable wear coating with a hardness in the mid 50's Rockwell C and in the same range as high tensile steel. The front pulley is CNC machined from high tensile steel, then heat treated both for tooth wear resistance, and durability on the spline drive. Finished by black zinc for corrosion resistance. GEARING OPTION: Gearing is a bit confusing with a larger number being "lower" geared – IE the -Inter / Conti stock sprocket ratio at 2.53:1 is lower than the "16T front sprocket mod" at 2.375:1 A lower gear ratio (2.53) will accelerate quicker, but top speed will be lower. At highway speeds the engine will be spinning at a higher speed, and depending how fast you are riding, you may not want to work the engine that hard for very long. A higher gear ratio (2.375) will accelerate slower, but (theoretical) top speed will be higher IF you have the HP to pull the gearing. Top speed on these bikes is usually not a consideration, however and some riders, myself included, would prefer lower engine speed on the highway. When higher geared, cruising speed rpm will be lower, and in the meat of the TQ band. Carrol Shelby famously said “horsepower sells cars, and torque wins races”. RE Street riding is mainly in the engine torque band, I try to match gearing to my riding style. Having a cruising rpm in 6th in the meat of the torque band, and not flogging the engine to death, works best for me. The Enfield 650 engine has modest torque and horsepower, so gearing becomes a compromise between acceptable performance, the ability to pull a higher gear, with ones tolerance for wringing its neck to keep up with motorway speeds in some countries. So how does this math translate into seat of the pants riding: (We Are Not Liable To Pay Any Import Duty or Taxes, If The Same Charged By The Customer’s Country Customs) NOTE - If custom required in Buyer Country Buyer will be responsible to pay that Custom fee to clear the parcel, If buyer Denied refund will not be initiated in that case (Give Us One Chance To Serve You Better) Any item on customer’s specification, will take some extra time to customize the item as per customer requirement.
