I last checked my valves at 54,000 miles and they were right in the middle of the tolerance. They have never needed adjustment. I now have 60k plus and all I've done is just change fluids and a thermostat at 35k.
This isn't the bike for you if you like to work on them because all you have to do is ride it.
