I have had the belt drive since right after the big bore (less than 200 miles), but with the 18t it would pull the front up if I wanted it too. Especially when going from first to second. With the 16t I would pretty much guarantee it would and if you got the weight postioned correctly I might even ponder to guess you could flip it over. There really is a big difference in the torque as you will soon see.

A word to the wise is not necessary. It is the stupid ones who need the advice. Pat
