Anyone know the shelf life of a drive belt? |

till it breaks, I just lost my original belt @ 22500k. I work at a dealer and each year states to replace at different mileages and depending on which revised version you buy. |

Shelf life = how long from time of manufacture can the part sit on the shelf without degradation? |

I imagine that'd have a lot to do with how it's stored. If you keep it in a dark, cool place, maybe sealed up in a plastic bag it'd probably be good 50 years from now. If it's hanging on a hook in the garage or coiled up under your seat, maybe 2-3 years? I'd e-mail Al Lighton at American Sport Bike and ask him; if anybody knows, he will. |
