I couldn't find a concise thread to put this info in. I know some on here like seeing the clearances observed at various check intervals, so here's mine:

I bought this bike off "Ol Hoot" May 2014 when it had 14k miles on it. He never did a valve check, and we're both fairly certain the original owner (sold at 11k) didn't do one either. So, 8+ years and 30,390 miles:

1 In 006/006
1 Ex 009/009
2 In 005/006
2 Ex 009/010
3 In 007/005
3 Ex 010/009
4 In 006/006
4 Ex 009/009

Three exhaust valves are tight at 0.009" (feeler gage gets some resistance going in, but too loose at 0.008").
