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.
