It might be possible Honda has improved the cylinder wall and/or ring surface treatment technology. This may not be something they would advertise on later model CBs, but just an evolution of tiny improvements.
Or maybe Honda did nothing, but realized they were too conservative on their user's manual recommendation.
Nevertheless, the lump is quite devine and common maintenance practice that we best know still applies.
