![]() ![]() Seems too good to be true, doesn’t it? So if a belt drive system offers so many advantages, then why aren’t they used more commonly? Well, as the case with every good thing in the world, they have their own downsides too. Also, while a belt drive system does not require regular maintenance, if ever the belt or any other components of the system give way, they are much more expensive to replace than the vanilla chain and sprocket setup. ![]() Secondly, the power loss during the transmission, depending on how the system has been set-up, ranges anywhere from 9 to 15 percent, which is quite high compared to a chain drive system. Belt drive systems are essentially costlier to produce than a chain-sprocket system. Belt drive systems also run much smoother, with much less jerks as compared to chain drives, and produce incomparably less noise too. ![]() They run clean as they don’t have to be lubricated with sticky lubes and don’t require cleaning either. Unlike chain drive, which requires very frequent cleaning, tightening and maintenance, belt drives are relative maintenance free. You can expect a well maintained belt drive on a motorcycle to last in excess of 100,000 km or even more. Modern drive belts are strengthened with steel wires inside and Kevlar coating outside – such belt systems can last really long. The belt is made of a rubber-like, but mostly a very strong synthetic material which lasts a very long time. This setup comprises of a driving pulley towards the gearbox output shaft and a driven pulley at the wheel – the two pulleys are connected by a belt which has teeth, or grooves on the inner side, matching the grooves on the outer side of the pulleys. Belt DriveĪ belt drive system isn’t as common as a chain drive system, though in terms of popularity, it stands at a distant second position. So what exactly are the various advantages and disadvantages of the three drive systems, and what is it about chain drives that make them the preferred choice? In this article, we will discuss all three final drive systems for a motorcycle in detail, along with their favourability for various applications and their respective pros and cons. Belt drive and shaft drive are the other two final drive systems, though they are not as ubiquitous as chain drive systems. However, it’s not the only final drive system used on motorcycles.
