ant the buell beltdrive? do youplan to still ride it on the street? I think it will be almost impossible to turn on pavement with a solid axle and being that long. But giveit a shot it would be a blast with that much torque.

I think the belt drive would be easy enough, change sprocket to pulley. And , yes I would ride it on the street. Bike nights would be a blast. If I used some little rice tires, I think I could just drift it around corners. Also some BIG paddles for the drags.

Im pretty sure most states require a differential for road use.
