SA50P belt and clutch

[Jam-bro]

I got a 2000 Elite 50 S and will be doing a few things to it. Been trying to research the answers to a few questions but have been unable find the info... Can someone please tell me for a stock SA50P:

How long do clutch shoes and springs last on average?
How long does the belt last on average?
When I replace the belt, does it need to be broken in? How about the clutch and springs, do they need to be broken in?

Thnx gentlemen..

I would say that a stock sa50p can easily 10000 miles plus on the original clutch shoes. the belt however will not last half as long under 5000. Can't answer your other q's.

It truly depends on many variables; from your riding style to your setup (if you've added high performance goodies), etc. If it's all stock, the OEM clutch shoes will last quite a while. I'd say a few riding seasons, but that also depends on how many miles in each season that you ride.

I like to check everything minimally once every year; the onset of winter is a good time to do so because most people don't ride in the snow. The other things that you should check is the rollers in the variator, condition of fuel lines, spark plug, etc.

It would be a good idea to download the manual for the particular model that you have and look for the preferred maintenance service guide; more so since you said it's for a stock model. viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2677
