He also says fuel filter needs to be replaced every 10,000 miles but again, there is no statement in the owner's manual that says it ever needs replacing. He made it sound like I was a negligent owner and not doing my due diligence as if I was supposed to know it all. Whatevers, I'll do a valve clearance and see what happens.

Usually the stalling issue starts far earlier than 10,000 miles. I've basically attributed it to the system being in open loop because it usually only happens in the first 10 minutes of riding.
I'd be curious to see if the guys changing to hotter stats have any stalling issues. Maybe the bike doesn't run quite hot enough to keep it in closed loop all the time?....or right on the border??
