I've never bothered unless they're worn, I always clean them up and use lots of copperslip on them though.

I hate those tokico pin with R clip setups though, give me the Honda Nissin type setup any time.

It might be an idea to replace with stainless (or titanium) pins though as it will save grief later. Again make sure you use copperslip on the pin so that it will come out again!
