Belt drive is a minus to me. Can't fix it along the road and have to take half the bike apart to change it. Never had any problem with guys telling them my bike is 800cc since it will out run most of their 1340s or what ever size V twin they have and out handle them on the curves and also get most of the attention that requires me to tell anyone what size it is in the first place.
Modern belt drives are pretty reliable these days and maintenance free to boot.
I'd never want a bike with a chain again. What a PITA on long-distance trips having to worry about waxing the chain. 
LOL modern chains don't really require lube I have lubed mine about 4 times in 20,000 miles. I have been with a few guys who broke belts or stripped teeth off them, they called a truck and were done. I have been with guys who broke chains and pulled a chain breaker out of the tool bag with a master ling , fixed it and rode the rest of the day. Never saw a guy fix a belt along the road and ride the rest of the day also never saw anyone change a belt without pulling the rear wheel and swing arm. Hmmmm  yep I guess belts are wonderful,,,,NOT! 
I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.
Eat right ,Exercise ,Stay fit, Die Anyway!
