Till it wears out! [HeHe] [Couldn't resist]
No really, learn to know when the belt is reaching it's limits. Look for signs of cracking or briddleness. Shiny is a bad sign too. And if it is starting to lose any of it's surface rubber in even small chunks, you have waited too long.
Now you know when ANY belt is getting too old.

acceptable MAINTAINED....AND....WITH perfect rigidity SET.....with established use, a belt will very last an prolonged time. My first NEW Harley replaced into an 86 Softail, first 12 months for Beltchronic on that sort, in 1993 I had to change the belt, the bike had round one hundred thirty,000 miles on the unique belt, about 10,000 of those miles were ridden with actually 2 stands of cord conserving the belt together. I see one hundred+hp HD's favourite which have 50-100K miles on the unique belts. If yours broke in decrease than 10k, both it replaced into no longer being acceptable maintained, replaced into misaligned, holeshots were being carried out, or debris were given into it.

What's a Tank? And who makes the belt? And if it is a touring ,how can it be a scooter?

mine lasted a year and a month on my electric scooter, but maybe, if you go to a chopper website where you can post forums then you could ask those guys since most choppers are belt driven!!!

It depends on your riding style (fast take-offs, hard down shifting), and how well/often you maintain the wheel alignment and belt tension. I've seen bigger bikes than yours go 10,000mi.
