Pascal I have both and the single pulleys come on Canadian maybe Euro engines too. The weight on the nose of the crank is a good thing it absorbs vibrations and smooths out the spining mass of the crank and so on. Bug engines pulleys will fit but will not seal. The single WBX pulleys use a synco type seal. Bob Donalds

Just wonoderign if there is any advantage to installing a single groved crank pulley if I don't have AC, or PS. I see from the ETKA that they were made but I have never seen one. Seems like reducing that weight might be good. I know there are all kinds of aluminium ones for the bugs. Thanks Pascal '84 Westy |
