25000mile valve check.
#5
I had my old bike a Honda VFR800 Vtec.
And the mileage was up to 18K and i took the bike to the  Honda main Dealers
to get the valve's checked  ( they need doing every 16K ) as it was playing on my mind,
I didn't get a price before getting the job done. silly me.
And nearly fainted when i got the bill £580 :eek .
apparently the heads have to come off and when i got the bill, it did not have
any parts for the shims.
And when i asked the service manager, it did not need any, they where all in tolerance.
That was 3 years ago and i am suffering / still getting reminded off my wife now
every time she buys something out of the savings account.
I certainly have learnt my lesson.
