    Don't know about that particular model, but it's recommended that the belts be changed every two years on mine even if the bike isn't run. They can develop a "set".

    The belts don't expire suddenly at X Ks or at a particular date, but the costs of a belt failure don't bear thinking about.

    Had a fleet car here on which the belt let go before the recommended Ks had even arrived. A complete engine rebuild was performed under warranty, but belts still make me nervous...

    You seem to have a good taste in bikes, I would love to park a K75s next to my Duc but the wife said no.

    You will never look back. These bikes are like the people - passionate, full of power, always bringing a smile, reminding us of why we are alive. They gt under your skin and life will never be the same. My beautiful Italian is the best purchase I have ever made
