Classico some members have collected their valve adjustment values and mileage over the years in this thread which can give you an idea about what to do about your valves;

we have no reports of any valve related incidents in the past and this engine is under stressed, so good thoughts on the adjustment but no reason to worry, if the service has been carried out by honda it would have been done by them, maybe have a very close look at the valve cover bolts and look for signs of spanner marks on the hex flats in the "undo direction", these bolts require very low torque values but still.....
Oh and be advised about NOT using oil filters with a hex nut spotwelded on the top, they have failed and spilled oil mid-stream on the road, good to know.
