When I had the 12k service dne on my bike, 3 exhaust valves were a little
tight. I don't have the numbers in front of me, but would assume your bike
isn't a rarity in that respect.

And speaking for the orange or blue RS contingent, you did mean to point out
yours was the only YELLOW RS at the Rallye, right? ;-)
