Actually,I lke that setup and don't understand why the Japs haven't adopted it,except maybe because they own all the chain companys too! I'm not sure what the tensile strength of your belt is,so I don't know if it could handle 160-200hp at the front spocket but I know a guy who has a Buell with Nos that doesn't seem to have probs...
Part of the problem, IMO is width... The other part of the problem is the inability to play around with gear ratios at will... And the belts are plenty strong... HP isn't the real biggy, it's torque that would be the problem... and my bike has more torque than 3/4 of the Jap bikes... And check out the 1125R... It's got a belt.
