For some Harley Davidson owners, its all about horse power. If the engine of a Harley Davidson has better-than-factory horsepower, installing an open belt drive will improve the performance. This is major modification. An open belt drive can be installed on a Harley Davidson in a back yard or garage, but some things are better left to a professional. This project involves specialty tools and procedures. Some, an average Harley rider would not have in a tool box or know about. An owners manual is a must to do this large of a job.

Get everything together before beginning to make the project go smoother. You will need, the service manual, a clutch hub puller, JIMS 34902-84 Mainshaft Bearing Race Tool, allen wrenches, a set of combination wrenches, a socket set, open belt drive kit, Blue or red Threadlocker

Put the bike on a bike stand, securely. Tear down the bike. Refer to the service manual for the exact parts that need to be removed as this differs by model.

Take the bearing race out of the main shaft using the JIM'S #34902-84. Take off the alternator rotor. Check the sprocket shaft seal for wear.

Glide the motor plate to where it will be installed. Insert the heel/toe shifter shaft into the motor plate.

Continuing on the right side of the bike, put the starter back in place at the rear of the motor plate by installing the two flange bolts.

Slide the entire assembly as shown in the manual, over the end of the starter shaft. Thread the bolt into the middle of the entire belt drive assembly. Torque as instructed in the manual.

Install the belt on the drive shafts temporarily. Adjust the shafts for the belt to slide into position. Remove the belt once the shafts are set to the proper setting.

Install both pulleys, torquing as directed in the manual.

Working the pulleys, install the belt on both. Position the front and rear pulleys with the motor sprocket and transmission main shaft.

Take the pulleys out again. Install the alternator cover by sliding it over the sprocket shaft right next to the stator rotor.

Install the pressure plate with the stamped word "out" showing.

Install the diaphragm spring and retainer. The stamped word "out" will face away from the bike. Tighten all nuts and bolts.

Replace the starter jack shaft with the bolts supplied in the kit.

Reassemble all other parts for your model. Adjust the clutch. Go for a test ride, adjusting as necessary.

New Building Methods

Building methods are improving every year giving us better insulated buildings which in turn lead to lower energy costs. Sometimes it's hard to see where we are making these improvements, but just compare a house that was built 40 years ago and compare it to a modern house built to the latest building regulations. One can see pretty quickly how much easier it is to heat a modern house and how much better a modern house will retain heat, why is this? The obvious and the main reason is that houses are now built with better insulation; new modern materials help retain heat in the building and therefore reduce energy costs. In combination with better insulation, new building methods have given us a more air tight structure. This is important because controlling the air circulation is just as important if not more important than insulation one's house.

Think about it this way. Imagine a wall built to the highest possible standard in terms of installation, sound proofing and air tightness and in that wall we insert one window and one door. If you think about it you can begin to understand very quickly that once you interfere with a completely sealed wall there is a higher chance of air escaping and heat escaping. With this in mind it is hugely important how we install windows and doors in any building, making sure that the hold structure is of a uniform standard. This is something that the building industry is only coming to terms with. There has been some resistance to introducing new recommended building regulations as they can increase the cost of the build, however as builders become familiar with new technologies and new building methods some of the costs can be absorbed by increase in the skill set of employees and becoming more efficient. No matter what the difficulties are it is important that the construction industry incorporates these new building methods in order to construct buildings to a higher standard and reduce our energy costs, improving our air tightness standards is a very efficient way to achieve this.

From the builders point of view extra care and attention needs to happen around all joins in a building. Joints are found around Windows, doors, corners, attics and wall plate level. Expanding foam can be used around Windows and doors and it also helps if these joints are taped giving them an all-around seal. Also there has been a move away from plastering especially in large apartment blocks this has been replaced by what's referred to as tape jointing whereby plasterboard's that have a groove joint are taped at each joint, sanded down and painted directly on to the plasterboard surface. Even though the plasterboard is of the recommended finish the joints don't often last the test of time. Even though reinforced mesh is used with a sealant it can crack over time mainly because the sealant may not be applied uniformly. This can lead to leakage in the building.

As you can see while there is huge progress being made especially as I mentioned before when we compare a house built 40 years ago to the modern-day house, we still have a long way to go before we have synergy between the building authorities, contractors and suppliers of new building materials. One of the main drawbacks with introducing new building methods and new building materials is that it is often years before we can really determine if they work!

Drove in rear main seal in too deep, how to remove?

So I was replacing my rear main seal, but I drove it in too deep. (not flush with the retainer)

I tried to pry it out with a screwdriver, but it wouldn't budge. Yes I know the new seal is worthless now, yes I have access to another one.

I heard about putting screws through the metal part of the seal and pulling it out, but I'd rather not. Would an oil seal puller work even if it was driven in farther than the retainer?

The screw method will work just fine, make sure you screw it in at the outside ridge instead of close to the seal surface. Some slide hammers come with the screw end in the kit. Guess you could pull the crank out to get to it.LOL. Good luck
