S1000RR HP4 new chain and sprockets, 2014.

Just had yearly service and surprised they recommended chain and sprockets to be changed. Will measure according to the handbook. But its 15,000 miles; so probably due.

In addition to chain and sprockets, they recommended... New...
  • sprocket bolts
  • rear axle nut
  • round cush drive rubbers
  • front tab washer.

Any thoughts, do we all do all this list?

Thanks
 
I wouldn't replace any of the parts listed, maybe tab washer at a push.
However I would replace the cush drive rubbers if worn.
I am very surprised your rubbers are worn at 15k miles.
 
HP4 cush drives are way better than the cast wheels of that era. Replace if visibly cracking falling apart only.
Not sure I'd bother with that list.

@18k the valve clearances need checking...
I'd replace the spark plugs if not done prior.
