If you're ever laying in bed, thinking about it, here's some things to help ease you into sleep...
V Rod
Shim-under-bucket
Desmodromic
There's nothing like having to loosen the engine to be able to move it around to adjust the valves or needing two cam lobes for one valve.
If those don't help...
Twin Cam
There's no valve adjustments there, but need to pull the cams every 40k or so to replace the tensioners. Sure, it may make it to 60k, but it may also spit chunks of tensioner rubber into the crankcase breather system and start blowing a steady stream of oil into the air filter, saturating it to the point the engine doesn't want to run. I know a guy..
