I guess I'll have to bring my car to you soon for a valve adjustment on my 06 Billman! I bought the car with 43k and it has 47k now. I don't think it has had a recent valve adjustment :/

I would trust you with my car before any Honda dealer...

I plan to have mine checked out regardless, but do we know if this problem is more prevalent on certain DBW model years vs. others?

That was exactly the experience on my 2006. All my exhaust valves were too tight at 85k miles. I'm not sure if that was the first time the valves had ever been adjusted or not, since I took ownership at 80k.
