Ok , I change the oil and filter, tighten chain, do I need to adjust or check the valves ? I ordered a clymer for it but its 2 weeks to get it from mail. any help will be most appriciated.

OIL AND FILTER, VALVE CLEARANCE/DECOMPRESSOR, CHECK CHAIN (ADJUSTMENT IS IN YOUR OWNERS MANUAL) CHECK ALL BOLTS AND FASTENERS (DON'T OVER TIGHTEN THE SMALL ONES)

I have feeler guages and general tools how hard to check valve clearance ? do you know what it should be ?
this is alot diff. from my 250r. and what is the decompression ?
man this manual honda gave me is more like "how to check air in tires " pretty non informative.
