yours is not much different in comparison but it can increase if the bike is used at higher rev's;

Took the liberty to add your measurements to it so we can all compare notes and learn.
And as i stated earlier the most wear occurs in the first kilometers:

Why did you remove the cam-cover, your values seem in spec to me ( see very top of the spreadsheet ) and i think this top part of the camshaft bearing is machined ( finished ) bolted to and mated with the cylinder head for a precise fit and close tolerance, most bikes only need to be adjusted ( shimmed ) after 40 to 50.000 km?
Sorry for the misunderstanding about this cover.
.
well, being silly me, I broke the bolts holding the cylinder head cover (The outer cover). Parts of the broken bolt is inside the thread hole inside this cam cap/cover. If you notice, the outer top cover 8 bolts is actually bolted into these 4 piece of cam holder. 2 bolts into each cam-cap. not actually into the cylinder head block. I have to remove it to extract the broken bolt. Not really opening it for shimming. once extracted the broken bolt i reinstall it back. didn't even touch the cam chains.
