What stops the belt from getting squished between the plates and not move towards the outere rim to change the proportion.? Is this product available for sale or is the idea available for DIY? Thanks This looks like a good idea. What stops the belt from getting squished between the plates and not move towards the outere rim to change the proportion.?

I think it has to do with mass - hydraulic lifter will weigh more than solid one. Another reason is accuracy or deflection. Solid methods of valve lift would be more accurate and stiff in working on high revs. Good question. I think it has to do with mass – hydraulic lifter will weigh more than solid one.

I was in the market for buying a Goldwing next spring, but this K1600 might be a much better option. Great product presentation by the way, the best one I found on the web so far. Thanks.
