You'll like using the VHT paint. The whole system works well, from primer through base coat to lacquer.
There is a very short wait between coats so the whole lot goes on quickly in one session.

Normal engine running heat is enough to cure the paint properly, but the belt covers don't really get very hot. I used an etching plastic primer on mine, then VHT over that. It has stayed stuck on and has cured okay too.
On my previous Monster I used ordinary cellulose (with plastic primer) on the belt covers and sprocket guard... It worked fine. Worked on the steel clutch cover too.
