That is how I worked it our. Just over 4000km in just under 4 months equates to approximately 13,000km per annum. Glad to see there are a few of us who go the distance!

Peter If you see thread like fiber under the engine by the rear of the belt cover, you are due for a break within a hundred kms. keep an eye out for this hair like stuff. It is the belt in it;s last stages of life, don't push it too far as they can get caught up and lock your rear wheel. Make sure you don't use Dayco or Malossi afermarket belts get the original Piaggio one, they cost more but worth it.
...to top 14,000km in my first year on the GT, but I am sure gonna try!!
Spoke to Goetz re belts and he reckons 16,000km for the change. Best you get your in soonest....unless you ride like a girl, in which case it might last another 5,000km!! Hahahahahaaaaa aaaa aa a

If it is then, and your current usage is "X" per day and there are 365.25 days per year, I would say "X" multiplied by 365.25 km's per year...
That being said, anything under 10,000 is just being lazy...

I should top 10k this year. The new work commute is 36km a day rain or shine (Not so much shine these days.). Plus the weekend joyrides etc.
I wouldn't mind it being less cause if scooter milage are like dog years my PX motor will be heading for an early grave.
I love the smell of 2 stroke in the morning
Mmmm so is 14,883 km's in the first year good or bad? At the moment we are at 19, 271 and still on the first belt, oops maybe time for a service!
