Hey guys, well im knew to the site and learnt quite a bit i didn't know cheers ...

Well i have a 400 savage, Japanese version, with a chain drive, but i want to convert to belt drive, no oiling, no chain snatch, no oil fling, and they last longer, ooohhh and its a lot quieter too, well i've done some research and the belt sprocket pullys should be a straight swap (since you have to add a spacer behind the sprocket if you do a chain drive conversion) hopefully mine already has this, the problem is sourcing the pullys here in the uk, ebay has one on at the mo, but i would ideally like a matching pair, any suggestions would be welcome!

and second is the exhaust, i took the original silencer off, and bought a universal fishtail, but encountered a slight problem... the silencer seems way to far towards the swinging arm, brake cable and tyre, i then had a close look at the original silencer and noticed it has a slight bend were it joins? anyone else seen this? i'm guessing i'm gonna have to source some pipe with a slight bend and do a wee bit of joint making

Does your bike have enough of an offset on the left side to accept the wide pulley/belt setup?  The LS650 has the left shock moved outside the swingarm to allow for the extra room needed.  You ultimately may want the belt guards as well.....maybe not.

I'm looking at a picture of the LS400 and I'll tell you what, it has the exact same chain guards as my belt guards so if your left-side wheel spacer is this big, all you'd need are the pulleys and belt.

I am glad to welcome another owner LS400! I installed on my savage belt drive. if it did not raise any problems, only after a fairly long had to correctly Orient the rear wheel, not to grinding belt and rear tyre is not rubbed on bolts крепления. now ride and enjoy the charms of a belt drive
so probably buy a set of belt drive and good luck!
sorry for my english, but i'm russian...

And to Mr WAMBR, its surprising were these savages get too, How's the weather in Russia? Im guessing kind of cold, how does the savage hold up?

Peace

HEY MAN, I've got those pulleys ready for you whenever you want them. Just need your address. I don't have the belt, though...
Just let me know!

Drifter as far as I remember in stock installed sprockets and chain 520 size. chainring 17 teeth in front and rear sproket about 50 teeth and the  112 links chain. it seems so.

not everything is so easy with chain. chain should first to cut off. but to remove the belt only need to loosen the two nuts-cap and remove the rear shock absorber.
I installed the drive belt, because the chain sprockets and worn out and I didn't like how they make noise and tired of their lubricated.
a belt drive me very much.
