Put the motor in today. it went well until I realized that my engine drive belt rubs on my tillotson carb. when belt is slackened (neutral). What the heck?  I got this bike in rough shape , not running . a lot of guess work. any pics. of a complete bike would be great. (r/side carb/belt area). Thanks Dan

Nice and clean .

Why is the threaded end of your crank so short ? It seems to have about half as many threads as mine . I hope that's normal for the earlier models . It looks very similar to this illustration :



Here's a pic of mine before the rebuild :
