No, there is loss of power in the difference of angle that the tensioner makes between the jack shaft and the wheel sprocket.  It's not as severe as the drawing suggests, and friction is minimal at best because the tensioner is either greased or has a bearing.  But the pull is being applied to the tensioner, not the wheel sprocket.  The proof of what I'm saying is the fact that if the tensioner arm didn't have a solid hold on the other end, it would be forced down.  And I'm not so sure how solid it really is.
If the tensioner is held in place such that it does not deflect, then the only power loss will be due to friction, which as you note should be minimal.

FWIW, I'm not a shill for Race Tech - I've just got a thing for good suspension and the RTCE's are the most cost-effective mod for these old damping rod front ends.

That things been photo-shopped, its a FAKE! Ha ha, just kidding, looks good mate, I hope you get it done right so you can stick it right up all the folk here who attacked your credibility before the mods stepped in............. eventually. :-\ ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Either there is only one pivot point, or the pivots are concentric.

Isn't it quite obvious there's only one pivot point and the jack shaft is not the one. What comes to the idler sprocket, increasing both "tertiary drive" sprocket size would eliminate the need such thing and the result would be simpler and cleaner.

Wow that's sooo cool!
I wish my bike was that awesome.
 You must be a master fabricator, can you give me some details on how you made that rear end work?

I can't believe how so many people jumped to conclusions instead of waiting for more info.  If your wives nagged that much, you'd flip #$%*.  Take a lesson from yourself and chill the #$%* out!

As for the bike itself, its giving me ideas for a 500 four in my garage...

It would appear that the bike was mocked up, never run/ridden, parked at Daytona and photographed with a bunch of fat drunk whores in chaps sitting on it.

I've gotta say, I've put plenty of effort into projects that were MUCH less worthwhile.  ;D

Were there any pics of said fat drunk whores in chaps mate? Mmmmmmnnn, fat drunk whores in chaps.............. (where's that "Uncle Pervy" emoticon when I need it?)  ;D

I don't think a 500/4 engine could turn a wheel that big mate.  ;)

Not all fat, not all whores.  Some cuties in there, too - and also some douchebags:


You're welcome.  ;D

I just realised that the shiny mark on the centre of the tire was caused by it rubbing on the frame, probably when he rolled it off his trailer? Cheers, Terry. ;D
