I rode a Victory Vision 38,000 miles before getting my SVTC. The belt needed adjustment maybe 5 times in ten years. Those kevlar-reinforced belts are supposedly good for eighty thousand miles or so. Mine showed no signs of significant wear. As with any belt, the stretch a bit with time and use, but a little loose is better than too tight, which causes premature bearing and pulley wear. Get the belt tension gauge and check it yourself every month or so and set your mind at ease. Best of luck.
