You are the exception rather than the rule. It isn't about the mileage. It's about the mileage compared with the typical life of a bike. Most folks aren't putting 22,000 miles per year on a bike. Most people would put 30-50,000 miles on a bike over it's service life with that taking up to 10 years to do that. The "lifetime" belt is expected to run about 30-50,000 miles based upon "normal" use. Wheelies, drag strip runs, track days/racing, and burnouts WILL decrease the life of either a belt or a chain. I just don't see the belt as anything but a net positive. No maintenance. No adjustment. No noise. No chain lash.
