Just getting thoughts on how much fire im playing with here. I'm setting out on a trip to california from new mexico next month, I just clocked 14k today so it looks like im going to hit my 15k mid trip. I imagine i'll be home right around 17 or 18k and plan to do the belts and valves then. A change in jobs that spawned this trip prevents me from doing it ahead of time ( long story)
i'll be riding from new mexico, to ventura california, around the socal area for a week or so, then up to sanfrancisco, then back down to vegas and finally back to NM.


My experiance with belts and valves on anything else i've owned tells me i should be fine but i'm open to thoughts.
I can't imagine at 15001 miles my belt would just grenade :rlwhore:

How many years on the belts? 2 to 3 years normal use I would say okay.

3- 3 1/2 i'd say. i'll have to check the history again, but the last owner was meticulous. He was very nice to her for the first 10k the last 3k that i've had her well... im a little more agressive than the average bear :/

I'd open the covers to check for any visual cracks/shreads before riding out.

Ride safe!

Do post pictures when you're done

thanks! I checked with the dealer today, these belts were changed 2 years ago almost on the dot. I feel much better.
