I've been running the Minispares vernier kit for years, no problems. The belts are cheap and readily available. Much quieter than a chain.

surely the belt is prone to snapping, and surley it needs changing more often say every 10000 or 20000 |

I' had one snap last year do to the cam and cam follwer joining holy matrimony. If I had used a chain, I have no idea on what would've happened! Broken crank? On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

The MS beltdrive goe's straight on a 998, no different to a 1275.
Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph
