i agree one cylinder is probably not getting spark because just sitting shouldn't cause the bike to need a valve adjustment...
i think some bikes have the valve specs embosed on the motor

how would you know if just 1 cylinder was running cool?????...with that few miles I would agree with the previous posts (the valves are ok). Many bikes never need a valve adjustment....

Re: mechanic in need!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was told from a dealer that if a customer asks for specs they are required to do so?
