Still waiting and drooling until March for mine, but the complaints about motor shafts keep gnawing on me. I notice from the manual that the cam tensioner is nearest the motor, while the most-used pulleys - for me anyway, are at the other end. Anyone reverse the pulley cones? Seems it might be easier on the motor shaft than giving all that leverage, and the 1 1/4" shaft can certainly take a greater load than a 5/8".
So - anyone do it? Are the pulleys even configured such that they can be reversed? Seems ambiguous from the parts diagram.
