valve clearances are a hot debated subject but they definitely do NOT need checking every 2000Kms / 2K. I guess that was a typo error since 20, 000K is more likely. I have two XT660 engines and neither needed adjusting until in their 50, 000km's and even then, only just but could have been left as they were. The correct thing to do is check them at the correct mileage / Kms but in reality, as evidenced by so many, leave everything until your bike is at least 25, 000 miles / < 50, 000K's
