Default Primary Belt Drive?

Noticed I haven't been able to find anyone that makes an open primary belt drive for the Dyna. There are plenty for Softtails but not for the Dyna. Anyone have any info?

Actually it seems overall aftermarket parts for the Dyna are lacking when compared to the Softtail. Why do Dyna owners get screwed?

Because they have to mod the crap out of them to make them as good as a Dyna?

It allows us Dyna owners a chance to fab some stuff, therefore not looking completely like someone elses ride...

That is interesting though..... I bet someone does....

Not even sure I would like an open primary, but they sure look cool in the issues of The Horse that I look at once in a while. Seems like the only kind of primary those guys use is open. Is there a reason for that? I guess maintenance is easier being that you don't need to change the oil.

Primo probably makes them for a Dyna. Here is what I found real quick http://www.debrix.com/items/item.aspx?itemid=1494027

I would rather spend the 1k+ on more HP. IMO Belt drives don't look very cool when bolted on a slow bike.
