It says in handbook to change belt every 2 years as I do only A few hundred a year do I do this regardless ? also if I store over winter do I have to squirt oil in bore as suggested in handbook ?
any views please

if your only doing a few hundred miles i think i'd stretch that 2 years a bit , by how much i'm not sure really , a bit of a judgement call really , which scoot is it on ,how much do ya weigh ,an riding style , if its a et4 50cc an ya 9 stone an ride gently double it to 4 years , if its a gts300cc ya 15stone an a traffic light bandit change at 2 years def , an when stored its def worth squirting oil in the bore an kicking it over every month or so, add petrol conditioner/additives to keep fuel fresh an either block it up so wheels dont touch the ground or spin wheels monthly to prevent flat spots occuring , putting a few extra psi in them helps aswell .

stretch it to 3 years at a guess ,an then replace with a decent mallosi/polini kevlar belt an that will outlive the scoot probably , H
