Predator Clutch guard/band brake

[AndrewSi]

Just a quick question. Anyone using this clutch guard with the band brake setup from OldMiniBikes on their predator? Wanted to buy this combo package and use a band brake. Basically, I want to know if it fits a predator and can use the band brake option.#35 3/4" 12T clutch + 4' of #35 chain + full clutch guard.

You will need a plate that screws to the engine and has a bracket. I support OldMiniBikes when I can, but this is a way better kit.

yeah, I need the clutch and chain too so that's why.

You would still need the plate in the allied kit.

So I guess the answer would be NO, you can not use that kit as it is.

The OldMiniBikes kit has the plate too, they just don't show it in the pics. I bought one before but no longer have it to test. Just want to know if the two holes match up on the engine and the third hole for the band brake does not interfere with the side cover as the head of the bolt holding the band brake might hit the side cover on the engine.

OldMiniBikes has every thing in that link for a little less than $50 w/o shipping. Just exploring my options and shopping around.

Search for the thread that is about band brakes. Lots of good photos.

Yeah the plate will fit.

All of the Predators have the 2.5 (?)" spacing on the PTO (Shaft side) of the engine.
