my mechanic did the APE manual tensioner at first valve check, 40,000 miles later no problems, adjusted once & nothing has to be removed to do it.
First gen timing chain questions.

I just thought I'd add my all-time favorite CCT change thread with everything you're going to need to know. Read this, and all your questions will be answered. https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php/topic/116778-gen1-cam-chain-tensioner-cct-replacement-lessons-learned/
This thread by RadioHowie is older, and while it's very good, you don't need a manual tensioner like he used. The new part in the thread above is just fine. https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?showtopic=122970&st=0
And finally, if you want your bike to run smooooth as silk, then you can use Fred's Really, Definitely, Completely Unauthorized Throttle Body Sync procedure. Fred leaves no stone unturned in his quest for perfection https://www.fjrforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=127426
This forum is a gold mine for almost any problem you will never have. One of these days we should index this stuff.
