New Guy New Bike (Pic) Valve Question

Hey -

New guy here.

I just bought a 2001 Taxi, see pic below.

So what's the real deal with valves on these bikes? I've been to both extremes: Harley with no adjustment and Ducati with frequent adjustment. I was reading another post here where someone said their RS didn't really need a valve adjustment until 70000+ miles. I'm hoping the K is more like the Harley. Maybe I'm just wishful thinking, but I was really hoping to just keep the fluids fresh, change the filters every now and again, and ride the crap out of this thing.

What say ye?
