I have a BDL EVO-9S 3" Open Belt Drive on a S&S 96" Evo & a Jims 5-Speed Transmission in a kraft tech softail chain drive 180/200 frame, Electric Start.
This is one of those projects that's been stopped & started on & off again over a period of years... "Ran When Parked" 🤣
So the current issue is I noticed the starter ring gear is hitting the inside of the BDL Motorplate, but very little; like it needs to be shimmed out a little bit from the motor plate. I tore everything apart for inspection, paint, polish years ago so I could have lost a shim and I have not started it since i put it back together because I'm changing up the controls and some other things unrelated to this issue.
But in looking at the BDL Instructions, diagrams and parts they itemize I don't see anything missing or any shims listed that would move that starter ring gear out from the motorplate/belt drive inner primary.
There's just the rear basket, with the starter ring gear, the bearing and snap ring.
This starter ring gear being to close to motor plate on a 3" BDL Open Belt Drive sound familiar to anyone?
thanks in advance.
