I've heard of lots of guys checking them at 13k miles and finding nothing needed to be adjusted

I believe they are to be checked at 10000kms (7k miles) ? per the service manual... mine were just checked and were fine.

I checked mine at 7500 miles. Everything was fine. Put Akro and PCIIIR on at 9000 miles. For shits and grins I checked them at 11800 miles and two were out of spec. Too tight. I pulled the motor and re-adjusted all the valves so they are right in the middle of the spec range. All things are good now
