Belt swaps & rollers are a piece of piss to do so long as you have a rattle gun.
I find belts last me a lot longer than the specified intervals, I've just measured my Foresight belt and it's well within specs at 12k so I'll test it again at 18k. Rollers are good too.
Get yourself some assembly lube with a high percentage of moly and use it sparingly on the splines (variator, clutch and rear wheel) as it protects them from wearing. Honda have a 60% lube but it's not available in the UK. Best I have is 40%. Remember the variator spline is on the crank so if you strip it, it's a big job to fix.
Buy a tyre plugging kit or borrow it from the Beemers toolkit when you ride the scoot.
Fit heated grips too, and Halfrauds sell a tiny set of jump leads for bikes, if you have an underseat light that switches off when the seat shuts and you leave it open.......
