[QUOTE="Jez Nemeth, post: 117300, member: 3871"] Update on where we were last summer, just starting to get some bike time again - Belt drive fitted -kept the standard Comet ratio, 30mm AT10 belt, Lightened Commando basket with sealed bearing - seen here without plates and spring fitted -seems smooth in rotation, shafts parallel -as yet engine hasn't been started, which will be the true test. Cover fits fine, with room, had made a 10mm 'spacer' in case there had been problems -but none. Just had to use grinder very lightly in a few places just to be sure. Local shop welded a pulley onto the ESA shaft (as Chris suggested -thanks mate) Really appreciate all the great advice, and collective knowledge -have no doubts it will do the trick perfectly.
