Gates PolyChain. Or any other similar product from several other suppliers.

ANY, and I mean ANY, local industrial supply place in your local yellow pages phone book can get an enormous selection of belts and pulleys for you to choose from.
 
By the way, a Google search of "Gates PolyChain catalog" will prove instructive.
 
Thanks to both dvd and Brian,
I was hoping someone here may have had experience with a similar application.

I asked around and found a friend using Gates polychain for a motorcycle drive application. The part number he used was:
Gates GT2-8MGT-896-30

I then contacted Motion Industries as dvd rcommended and sent these specs for them to help select appropriate parts numbers.
