Has anyone had to change your belt yet? If so, how many miles did you get out of the old one? Also, I understand that you get a notice on the display when belt is worn and ready for change. If you get warning on long trip, how long can you go after first getting the warning before actually changing the belt??

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

The manual says change every 12K miles. I assume the dash warning comes on about 12K miles? If its not changed the bike is still ridable. Worst thing that will happen is you blow the belt. Which means you break it and shred it to pieces. Doesn't hurt anything (although it is a mess to clean up) but the bike isn't ridable until you put a new belt on.

Just change it every 12,000 miles, unless you ride conservatively, in which case you probably can go twice that far. I'm sure there is quit a safety margin in that number. Unless you are on a long trip, you could conceivably ride until it breaks. Even on a long trip, you could carry a spare belt.
