Personally, I wouldn't be worried--I'm just throwing out ideas.

If the pedal doesn't have any mysterious sinking or suddenly go soft at weird times, I wouldn't really be too concerned. Although at the mileage it couldn't hurt to replace it.

Typically MC problems start after a panic stop or "testing the brakes" by slamming them on (lots of people do this, believe it or not). So if you notice substantially different pedal pressure, then worry. Otherwise you could probably hang on until spring or maybe even longer.
