American ingenuity and enterprising spirit being what it is, I predict the arrival of a drop-dead gorgeous 3W kit, no doubt powered by Harley-Davidson, with a cush drive not unlike the ACE cycle car that got this whole thing going. Any Japanese transmission linked to a Honda rear end should do, without the bevel box or drive belt problems. BTW, I truly regret not having ordered the last (13th) ACE while I could... I doubt that I would have had the issues we are seeing. Blake, as a potential buyer, I appreciate your honest and forthright input, if not exposure. For the time, I am putting my order of my M3W on the back burner. I am sure this applies to others on this side of the pond. P.
