The ratio is a little shorter than the stock Speedy. There is a little more oomph in the seat of your pants. It's quieter, until it starts squeaking. Never realized how much chain noise there is until I didn't have one. Make sure you keep it tight or it will self destruct in several thousand miles. I've got over 25k on my second belt but other than the squeaking it's trouble free. The second belt is from Harley - I was in a pinch at the time and couldn't wait for shipping. I don't keep an extra one around because it's not like you can swap it out on the side of the road. You need a jack or lift and a full complement of tools to do the job. In a pinch I'll get another Harley belt but otherwise I should be able to get one from Brent fairly quickly. It has to be a pinch, though, because the Harley belt has the "Harley tax" attached.
