Great clean & tidy build!

I'm interested to know about the belt drive. What parts/bike is it from? how do you like it? I'm working on an electric conversion and am considering a belt drive. Any info you have would be appreciated.

Yea it's stock belt drive on this model although I believe most kz250 models were chain, saw it and thought it would maybe stand out as a belt drive its super smooth and quiet too.

Can you run through your process of painting the wheels? I'm leaving my rims chrome but planning on painting the hubs and spokes. The hubs are oxidized and the spokes are rusty. Did you do the same on the fork lowers? I'll save my carb questions for later!

I soda blasted all the road grime off of them after dismounting old tires, then hand sanded with scotch brite each spoke hub rim lip etc then washed them, then right before paint used thinner to clean the surface then sprayed them with thinned out rustoleum semi gloss black I eye balled it by texture but the paint/thinner ratio was probably 85/15 I dont remember the size tip i used and yes same as lower forks head light bucket frame and anything else black.
