Drive belt replacement poll

When did you change your drive belt or do you plan on changing it?
(I couldn't find a poll on this or the search is still broken.)

69k miles and haven't changed it. It is nothing but a waste of $$ to change a belt until it breaks or is damaged to the point where you can look at it and guess it will break in the near future.

My E-Glide has 70,000 on it now. So far no probs at all. From what I can see this one will take me to 100k easily.

when a buddy of mine bought a new bike last year the salesman at the dealer said the belt will almost definitely outlast the bike.

Had one break at 20,000 Mi.on astock 97 Ultra. No warning, or signs just broke. Talk about a total pain in the @$$.[:@] I have also ran them 100,000 mi. with no problems.

Go figure.
