SR/F. But without batch numbers it's not very helpful ...
One of those belts was a brand new one ordered only last year. I think the real problem was the dealer overtightening the belts both times.

Hi,

finally the parts I ordered arrived at the dealer today

Maybe it is luck (or lack thereof)*, both my last two belts lasted just 7k miles on ordinary roads at ordinary trundling speeds.

On which bike?  I recall a message here that the SR/F had a string of bad belts from the factory that was later fixed.

I seen it now.
Ouch, yah that did sound expensive, I don't care which brand of bike it is, they ALL are proud of their plastic.  Probably a brake lever and foot pedal too.  Id throw in a handle bar insert too.

Thankfully he's not injured, or didn't appear to be.
Wonder how he lost it, obvious lowside but how did it happen, im curious.

Good to know.  Thank you, Aaron!

Michael, I am going to take a leap of faith and say you are correct.
With a key bike, the only way to turn it on, is to turn the key, there is no button push thingie.

Just because a belt doesn't look worn does not mean it is not.  The newer synthetic materials they use now don't always show wear the way the old fashioned belts do, and you know it's weak when you are stranded somewhere.
