Thanks to everyone for responding. I have looked at both Zippers and the Baker site. It does look like the primary sprocket may be the easier way. But I have to ask, why the conversion to the secondary chain if it wasn't to change ratios?

For track days ,the belt doesn't like track days when you're putting 94 hp on the ground + a 30 hp nozzle 🙂

When Harley went to a 6 speed they went higher on the wheel pulley which made the over all gearing higher but in six gear it is still 1 to 1 like a five speed. Backer does the same but by putting a larger motor sprocket gear instead of the wheel pulley which is really a better way to do it.
