Thanks again.
Yes, adding a second smaller pulley would still help to alleviate skipping by increasing the belt wrap on the drive pulley. The larger idler pulley also helped to relieve some tension in the belt by broadening the curve the belt has to make, and two small idler pulleys don't have that advantage, but you still get the increased belt wrap. On the plus side, with two small pulleys I think you can still run the regular yellow XXXS belt and don't have to change to the longer H.D. belt.

The outdrive bearings are fixed now. My bad, just messed up one of the "add to cart" links in one of the updates. All good now.

Yes, Lesro is no longer the exclusive importer for X Factory in the U.K. The details are still being worked out - Chazz can give you lots better information. There was no big announcement; I think the first mention on these boards was in this thread: http://www.oople.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8651
