All the more reason to never open the head again after the 36K inspection. Too scary. From what I was gived to understand by BMW mechanics, the valves don't change much after the initial bedding.
A buddy went well over 100K miles on a K100 engine pulling a sidecar and never looked at the valves.
Excellent show and tell though.

I've had a couple of valves change by 1 thou in 40,000 km (still well within spec)
