I ran across this and it reminded me of the last posts. This is what some folks in the Harley side do. Just a simple metering if needed and keep the oil cap and dipstick plus a general routine to get going on a cold start.

I don’t have any oil measurement and not planning it. I’m pretty bog standard Templar owner, I even still run oem spark plug and carburetor only changing out the jets, I have nearly 600 miles on the clock and no valve adjustments. I start and warm my bike up while finishing gearing up before starting a ride and I go slowly through the neighborhood estate before reaching an exit and starting to really flog the throttle. So far it’s been running like a dream without issues. The only change I did for high speeds is moving my fork adjustments back towards the triple tee top. Ever since then I’ve not adjusted anything on the bike. Just clean the chain and lube every month or so.
