Yes, out of the hole torque is greatly improved, and it makes the 6th gear usable!! I would definitely do this mod before cams, I noticed a bigger improvement doing the pulleys on the Rocker then I did with the cam upgrade on my Breakout....The 30T trans sprocket is HD part #83595-11 ( Surdyke $67.86), no need to spend more $ for Andrew or Baker... For 70T pulleys check out Southern Motorcycle Works, their price is better than most for custom pulleys, or you might find a used one on Ebay, just be careful the teeth are in good shape if you go this route, I also wouldn't buy some off brand or Chinese crap, they could ware out/damage your belt.... don't get wider than 1 1/8" and you might need a pulley spacer to get the tire/belt clearance correct, if it's needed, and what size will depend if the pulley has an off-set or not and if so, what size...The "sticky" at the top of the Softail forums page has a lot of good info about this mod, check it out.....As far as cams go, there's a lot of good ones out there. If you want the torque down lower, I would probably choose a different cam. The V&H 575 has an intake close at 40, which is a little on the late side and the peak torque would be up a bit in the RPMs. I put the Andrews 37H cams in my Breakout and I really like them, they have an intake close at 38 and I wont go later then that when I do the Rocker cams, I've been looking at cams with an intake close at 34 or lower....although with the 30/70 pulley mod done, the 37H or 57H (same cam with 560 lift vs 510 for the 37H) might be just the ticket!!!

WILL THIS WORK, GOOD BRAND?

 

Looks centered? I can ask about offset

 

Ya, that should work, I've heard of the brand, but haven't used any of their parts. I think you'll probably need a .250 pulley spacer, it doesn't appear to be built-in (if your keeping the stock 240mm size tire). On a side note, if it has the stock rear Dunlop 240mm tire (D407), get rid of it ASAP, it sucks. If you want you can go with a 250mm or 260mm tire, you can with no problem. I run Metzeler 260mm on both bikes. If you plan on getting a 250/260, you'll need a wider pulley spacer, maybe 5/16" or .375, to keep the belt away from the tire .....again see the "how to" for this mod at the top of the Softail threads page. It has all the info you need, with pics....

 

Il do the tire after engine work is done, than ill switch up to the pulley, the bolts in chrome are hard to track down how does 7/16"-14 x 1-3/4" GRADE 8 CHROME with that spacer, and yes its the stock tire,btw what sucks so bad? and what will I notice with new tire?more stability, wider turn radius im sure?


will these work minus the washers?

No, wrong bolts for that Pulley, it has counter-sunk holes, you'll want Allen/Hex head bolts....Drag Specialties has both the spacer and the bolts you'll need.....and AGAIN, look at the Sticky: "Drive ratio upgrade How To" thread for this mod... L.A. Dog did a great job, giving you everything you need to know regarding the rear pulley, including how to figure out what length bolts to buy, he used grade 10, but 8 is fine. (he also gives another source for bolts).....The stock tire is just horrible, it's a strange shape, and you'll feel a roll-over at a certain point when you lean into a turn, feels like a bump. The tire has very little contact area compared to other brands, or even compared to other Dunlops like the E350, and the center will ware out way before the sides, I could go on.....but pretty much everyone agrees (which you don't see here often lol) it's just a bad tire... They put the same tire on the Breakout, and if you look around here on the Forums, you'll see that it's the first thing a lot of guys change on the bike. Look at my Breakout thread, I have pics comparing it with the 260 Metz. I installed... Anything from Metzeler/Pirelli/Avon or the E350, will make a huge difference in feel and handling. Just remember to get the wider pulley spacer if you go larger than 240mm....

 

yea i checked on tires as I dropped my grips off to be put on, the tires are D407F FRONT AND DUNLOP D407 REAR read the sticky, its vey technical for me man, ill an buy whatever, but the numbers are greek to me, although there's ALOT f great info I totally agree, I just don't understand some, sorry if I sound repetitive, REAR PULLEY HAD A NUMBER OF 40585-08


probably all stock, might be good time to upgrade the belt, new belt, new pulley?125 tooth 1 1/8"? guessing, lol what works h the 70/30 split, and does it matter with belts, I know on cars I use the gatorbck Goodyear belts, serpentine, who make a killer belt that will handle the cams as I go....

 

I really didn't have a big issue with the front tire, you can keep it until it needs replacing, but change the rear when you can, you'll be glad ya did....and unless you see something wrong with the belt, like a rock hole, there's no need to change it. It's a 133t, 1" belt, fine for the 1 1/8" pulley and Harley uses quality belts, good up to like 100k...and they will handle a way more torque/HP then you'll be throwing at it.......and be sure to post some pics!!!

 

were those a direct plug in, and im assuming, the led is brighter, I like the compact look, the bars wont be as cluttered.....I like em
