I tend to wear out engines quicker than cam belts... I wouldn't re-use old ones, so I've never actually change a set.... apart from after my Mallory crash, I removed the cam covers and found half the gerrards kitty litter in there.

eg- clutch slave cyl- breaker=£55+£5p&p ducati=£41inc vat +p&p

Mine were about £35 a pair for the square tooth belts but think the round tooth belts on the 620's are more expensive
