Thats what my chiltons says also.    Has the cam chain adjuster been upgraded?

[Chad]

Mine hasn't 

I am searching for information on that recall. In the meantime, I'm adjusting the cam chain  tensioner every 1000 miles or so.

What was the problem?    A part failure or just fast wearing?

[Chad]

Here is the best description I found of the recall:
"The cam follower rocker shaft was originally a two piece design and it was replaced with one piece design.  If you pull the plug out of the cylinderhead top cover that covers the rocker shaft and the plug has an integral shaft, it's been updated.  The earlier designs wore out the bore for the rocker shaft because the shaft would spin in the bore."
