| I voted 16,000-19,999. The first time I replaced my belt was to change to the Mitshubishi belt at the same time I installed the J. Costa variator. The OEM belt was still in great shape and I kept it. I changed the belt again after 16,000 miles with another Mitshubishi belt and it was also in great shape. I only changed it out the first time at 12,000 since I wanted to install the J. Costa and I just thought I would do it so I didn't have to take things apart so quick. I was putting a bunch of miles on the bike at that time and I knew I would have to change it in a couple of months anyway. I change my belts and tires before they probably need replacing just so something doesn't break down and I have to walk. When I was younger I would ride the bike until it did break down, but then I was young, and dumb, and broke. lol I will probably put my OEM belt on after my current belt has 16,000 miles since the OEM should have at least another 4,000 miles on it. |
