Just service it after every 3500 miles. Then IIRC it'll be due a valve clearance check at 31K

Thats what I did with mine and thats what we've been doing with Liz's K5 which has nearly 40K on it now.

Air filter when it needs it really, can't remember what the book says but it's so dependant on use that it's meaningless.

If you don't use the bike for long periods of time, you could find a family of mice taking up residence in the airbox.

IIRC, air filter on a pointy is every 7k miles.
