The rebuild of my bike is well under way but i have hit a snag, i decided to convert the primary drive from chain to belt drive, all the parts are under construction, the problem is the origonal housing is 3/8 to narrow, and these
housings are notorious for leaking oil any way, the oil comes from seepage
past the main bearing, the origonal housings are held together with a band.
So i need to make some thing to fit the bill, obviously i want it to look good,
i was thinking of using a welded s/steel construction, with the (back plate)
just made out of say 2mm flat sheet, it is the (cover) that is the biggest problem, how the heck do i get it to look good, as if it were made for the bike and not just an after thought?
