I think the consequences of a broken timing belt far out way the benefit of reduced engine noise :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol:
That reminds me must buy a race can. :mfr_lol:

As a main drive belt I think they have merit. Before the GTR I looked at the Buell Ulysses, but that's powered by a Milwaukee tractor. :biker3:

yes I was thinking that , someone who is knowledgeable enough to advise on cam belt change but dumb enough to think that these engines have a timing belt in the first place

Most jap bikes have timing chains.

I have a ducati 999 as well as my Gtr, the ducati has 2 timing belts. Change every 2 years to be safe. Your gtr........ Don't worry, it'll run forever!
