Default primary inspections

At 28k on the 04 fatty, I ordered a primary gasket kit, gonna pop the main cover off an look in awe at sompthing cool,

anyways, anything I should look for or adjust (aside from the clutch cable) I have the main manual. I use it to sit on so im not in the dirt. Money well spent
