I just bought a 04 myself and as far as valves go here in canada its looking like it would cost me just shy of 500 bucks to get it all fixed right if i needed to. Thats kibble white valves and springs. I would pretty much look for the same things basically that you would look for in a two stroke. Bearings and such and maybe a compression test. If the guy will let you tho i would take the head off and check those clearances unless you have no quams with replacing those things.
