The question is then really, what is the longest available belt, yes?

Me not know. Hopefully someone else will.

You could convert it to a chain and go as long as you want, granted that you can find a swingarm that long.

Any 1-1/8" wide belt for a late model Harley-Davidson should fit, so you might look for what is available from Gates or Dayco-Panther. A cursory google search shows that Gates makes one that has 139 teeth. Stock is 128 I believe. That gives you almost 5.5 more teeth worth of swingarm length, not a huge amount, but significant, by dead reckoning, nearly 3 inches.
