Hey guys, I was just giving my bike a once over before the trip to It. motofest.  It is a 2 yr old 696 with 5500 miles and an appointment in two weeks at duc pond to get the 7.5k service done.  Anyways, I pulled off the timing belt covers just to make sure everything is good, and there's some wear on the edges of the timing belts.  There's a thin strip of copper colored metal visible along the outer edges of the belts (facing directly at you as you're looking at them).  Other than that, everything looks good, just a bit of rubber dust accumulated under the covers.  Is it still good to take to motofest and back?  Like I said, it already has an appointment for the big service in a couple weeks and it's actually 2k under the service interval.  Maybe I'm being paranoid!
