Ok thats the golden question.. 400? 500?
My bike reads 50 thousand miles but I doubt the engine is that old... i think... It runs fine and no problems at all but I have no idea when the last valve adjustment was done.
She starts very quickly, again no nidle problems, nothing.
How much does a routing valve adjustment cost?
If nits over 500, its probably just cheaper to buy another engine with the valves adjusted already and less miles right? (from this site)
How much should I pay for a valve adjustment?

Well, if you say it's running like a champ, I'll say "don't fix it if it ain't broken"...
That's not to say it shouldn't be done at some point in the future, but at the same time if you are able to ride it and it runs without issue, I personally wouldn't worry too much about it..
