I change mine with every oil change...and keep a spare set in saddlebag.

$6 bucks, man...c'mon! It's a $20k bike!

Change mine once a year. Did it yesterday with Autolite 4164's. I wanted 4163's but they didn't carry them. Total cost was $3.89.

I will go the 20k specified in the service manual unless they look bad when I check them at each oil change (5k miles).
