I replaced original front brake-rotor at 12K-miles, it was only 1/2 worn. I upgraded to Galfer 420-stainless rotors. After 5 race seasons and 3 sets of semi-metallic pads, they show ZERO wear, no ridges or grooves anywhere that could be felt or seen. Last year I upgraded brakes again to larger 310mm rotors.

Clutch life... depends upon how smoothly you shift and match RPMs. I slip clutch very little to start and do clutchless shifting up & match revs on downshifts so there's little slippage. On original clutch at 22K-miles. I did upgrade to stiffer Barnett clutch springs in beginning. You might want to try loosing clutch cable slightly to put engagement point in centre of travel.

All service items you're facing can be done at home easy with instructions from service manual. You should at least review procedures to be familiar with what's involved. Also wouldn't hurt to get second opinion for fixing these at another shoppe.

Thanks.
The valves were checked at 24000 km, 48 000 km and 63800 km. Only at the last occasion I was told that they were out of spec, and therefore adjusted.
Should try and do more of the servicing myself, and checkl out the Galfer discs..
