I replaced my 06 Suzuki S50 with a brand new 2012 Stryker yesterday. I rode to home from the dealership and I loved the Stryker.
I read the manual and I was surprized that it is recommended to change the drive belt every 2500 miles (4000km), also I was shock to know that the belt price is minimum $500.
I am not a handy guy, and with my current conservative mileage, I would be changing the belt every two years at a cost $800 approx. !!
Our local Yami Dealer says they have only changed a belt twice. 1 due to and accident and another on a Raider where a smaller rear pulley was put on. They have been in business for 40 years.
