I wouldn't be surprised at the extended belt intervals because my "two year" Evo belt is the exact same one with a five year life on the 1100 Scrambler. (And I run mine for four years already.)

I would be surprised if the valve service intervals were extended though.
Correct!
MR confirmed that those have not been extended. It's a bit confusing as for a 696 etc the chart states "Mileage Service DESMO" every 15K miles, but valve clearances are also part of the "Mileage Service OIL" which is every 7500K miles. (Although Oil and filter change is also annually)! The intervals are slightly longer for 821s and 1200s.
