Looking for Capn Jim.

[GoodVybrations]

G'day spyder brothers and sisters.:helpsmilie:Does anyone know if Capn Jim is still in business? I've tried emailing, and tried buying drive belt tensioner off ebay, with no result. Is there anywhere else I can get a belt tensioner? I've gotten rid of buzzing vibe thru handlebars, and reduced vibe felt thru seat and footpegs, would like to fit belt tensioner, and hopefully reduce further. May your beer always be cold, cheers.

He's probably too busy making belt 'tensioners.'

Check my post 12 on this thread - works a treat.

The tensioner can be ordered from any bearing supplier using the Rostra part number SE18.

He's down here at the owners event in TN right now.

Thanks Freddy for info. I think I'll order the part and make one.:clap:

I talk to him at the owners event as I had just put one on my RTS and so far its a winner. Took a lot of the belt flap out of it . I think I still need to tweak it a bit . Well made and an easy install .
