On a small bike like that I would imagine it to be a straight forward screw and nut operation, loosen the rocker cover and have a peek with a torch. You should be able to get a good enough look without having to fully remover the cover.

I would have thought that as they look like the ones used on cars years ago, still have 1k to do before they need adjusting.
I think my yammy deler wanted £60-70 to do it Shocked i think not.
Thats a new small torque wrench to go with my bigger one Very Happy Very Happy .

More often than not you will find the nut is a stupid size 7mm or 9mm, just a heads up before you start taking it apart.....oh and dont forget your feeler gauges!
