Let a belt pop on you and see how much fun it is to replace. Now I hear a lot of things about chains and how much maintenance is needed. Today's chains are sealed and need very little maintenance. In fact you can buy a spray lube wax and spray it on the chain every time you check the rear air pressure in your tire. If the chain breaks it can easily be installed without having to remove the swing arm. I for one, am looking forward to getting rid of the belt.

It's interesting how one's experiences can vary from person to person, had motorcycles most of my life. In more recent times had 9 Harley s all with belt drive and never had a moments problem with them at all. Compared to the mess and continuous adjustment necessary with a chain, I would never choose a chain for a bike. I think its more the Morgan application, rather then the belt, where the problem may lie.
