Major Service

G'day all,

My Sprint ('98 Sport) just clocked over 70,000km and I promised myself I would do a major service at this point.
The bike is running great but I have no record of previous maintenance routines. Here's what I've got in mind:

Valve clearances
Oil and filter
New plugs
Coolant flush/change
New thermostat (the old one is ok but a long hot summer is approaching)
Air filter (if required)
Carb sync
Check coil/lead connections
Steering head bearing adjustment
Alternator cush rubbers/bolt (its got the rattle)

Is there anything else I should be doing whilst I've got the thing in bits?
These seem to be the main items of importance from what I've read.

Cheers and safe riding,

Roden
