Chain drive vs. Belt drive
Which is better?
Over the years I've seen chain drives go the way of the dodo bird. Is the reason mechanical ? Are belt drive that much better than chain drives?
Or is it all about the $$?
I remember my grandfather's scoot had a chain.. several of my Dad's and Uncle's had chain drive.
What year did the MoCo come out with belt drives?
Thanks for any input!!

I am intrested as well. On the road you can generaly fix a chain
with a master link, and or a half link, and a chain spliter, try that
with a belt. On the other hand how much gose wrong with a belt?
You can repair a lot of chains for the price of replacing one belt.
How many chains will you replace dureing the life span of one belt?
I am not saying anything I am only wondering.
