I have read a few threads about the 1700 drive sprocket and shaft stripping out and what should be done to help prevent it. My question is at what mileage should the washer be replaced and nut re-torqued. Thanks.

My suggestion would be to check it every Spring and every rear tire change and dont overtighten the drive belt.

Depends upon the vehicle which sort of motorcycle condition you have, drivers mostly torque or retorque and change their washers after 100/150, on road, km.

Checked mine and replaced at 70,000 kms. Was good

Depends upon the travelling miles and quality of your product. Time or miles aren't fixed at all.
