The power of your motorcycle’s motor is transferred to the rear wheel through a final drive. There are chains and sprockets, belts and pulleys, and pre-assembled driveshafts, each of which has its own pros and cons. The chain-type final drive is considered to be the most efficient way of delivering engine power to the ground. Chains offer minimal energy loses caused by friction, they are affordable but require regular cleaning, lubrication, and frequent replacement. Also, chains are the noisiest among other types of final drive mechanisms. Steel chains and sprockets are relatively easy to manufacture, which allows for mass production and consequent cost reduction.
These are the reasons why the chain final drive is the most common type used for delivering power to the rear wheels of all kinds of motorcycles. The belt drive is much quieter than its chain counterpart and doesn’t require any cleaning or lubrication throughout the whole service life. The no-noise construction offers greater comfort to the rider, which makes the belt drive preferable on touring motorcycles often used for long-distance travels. Belts are durable enough to last for decades, but when they break, unlike chains, they cannot be fixed on the road. The installation of the new belt requires the removal of the rear wheel and sometimes even the swingarm.
The use of driveshafts as final drives has the most sense in motorcycles with crankshafts running parallel to the direction of travel. The shaft usually consists of a rotating metal rod completely enclosed in the casing. This rod is generously lubricated and can run for years without requiring any maintenance. It is almost impossible to break a driveshaft. The construction is durable but heavy, which takes away some of the horses meant to be delivered to the wheel. No matter which type of the final drive is used on your bike, you may want to accessorize it with a good-looking final drive cover.
In our online store, we have gathered a collection of motorcycle drive belts and driveshaft covers designed to protect riders from injuries caused by jeans leg or long scarf getting inside a running final drive. You can cover the moving parts of a belt drive while leaving them displayed for everyone to see by installing a belt guard made of clear, lightweight, and virtually unbreakable polycarbonate. It doesn’t get faded due to exposure to UV light and can withstand powerful impacts. If you would like to change the appearance of your motorcycle, the belt cover can be painted or engraved.
If you prefer chrome-plated or powder-coated accessories, you may opt for a sturdy, reinforced steel tracker belt guard designed to cover dangerous moving belts and pulleys. Drilled holes and slots reduce the weight of the piece without compromising its structural integrity. Such an accessory can not only protect you and your passengers from harm but also give your bike a classy, sporty look. For those who prefer more high-tech styling, we may offer a cover that shields only one section of a belt drive that poses the greatest hazard. If you want to hide the bolts attaching your driveshaft to the final drive, you can do it by using a polished aluminum cover.
