MMC have changed the cambelt replacement interval from 30,000 to 10,000 miles.
They don't seem to have issued any particular notification but have amended the interval on the dealer service checklist.

Typical MMC, the network is on its own. Those prices listed are laughable, my nearest dealer would not touch the 3 Wheeler for those prices, in fact it costs way more to get the broken machine to the nearest dealer.

That maybe the case in the US, but the MMC service prices are similar to other dealers in the UK, Krazy Horse for example, https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1680/5355/files/menu-morgan_m3w_pricing_02-21.jpg?v=1644937708

Rog G, as I said, you folks in the UK are lucky to have such a network.

Just how easily available is a replacement cambelt just now? The alternative parts list mentions the S&S/Gates numbers...Matt's Machine Shop (where I think we got our current spare) seems to have shut its webshop.....

Alternatives are available and can often be found on eBay. Dramatically cheaper than the Gates/S&S original. How good and reliable they are is something we will all find out eventually...

How good and reliable they are is something we will all find out eventually... l've invested in one of these as a spare. It is noticeably more flexible and rubbery compared to the Gates original. Has anyone been brave enough to fit one yet?
