Mine is at 0 and 6 and I've been wondering about this as well. I'm still within spec and do monitor it. I figured when it came time for a clutch and ISMB that would be the time to tackle the cam chain tensioners, guides, and timing too. A timing kit (tools to lock cams, flywheel, etc.) is only about $350 or so on e-Bay. Biggest question I've had is where to find detailed instructions on retiming the engine and replacing all the individual components. Although I will admit I have not spent a LOT of time looking since it hasn't been a high priority.

I do know there are quite a few threads on it and the earlier 5 chain setup has been discussed, but I don't recall seeing a detailed how-to on it. A bit of searching here and on Rennlist might find what you are looking for though.
