How often do you guys do them, it says every 1,500 miles in the manual?
Quite honestly I do them when sounds are telling me something, or by opportunity when it is in the workshop. I can never remember how far I've gone since they were last done. Never did me any harm. When I first got this bike six years back ( I paid too much!) the tappet covers were stuck fast , the hexagons on them mostly rounded off, I needed the mechanics to get them off and do the tappets, gawd knows how overdue they were, it may have a lot to do with how hard the bike is ridden of course.
