Other than the driveshaft spline lube @~50k intervals there is an updated left side chain tensioner that is recommended.
The original tensioner can leak down when the bike sits for a day/few days and you will get timing chain noise at start. I have 30k miles on mine and have not had the problem. I did buy the updated tensioner and will put it in when/if this happens to my 1998 R1100RT. The replacement can be done while standing/sitting next to the bike on it's center stand.
