Yes, your ears do adjust to sound. This is because of the anatomy of the ear. Sound enters the ear through the ear canal, and then vibrate the eardrum. This vibrates little tiny hairs in part of the inner ear known as the cochlea. These hairs send nerve signals to the brain which interprets volume tone, etc. When you listen to loud music, especially for long periods of time, the constant vibrations somewhat flatten these hairs (like when you place a heavy object on a lawn, the grass stays down for a while even after the object is lifted) causing lowered sensitivity.

How often do you adjust valves on 850 suzuki c50?

First of all, it's not 850cc, it's 805cc. You want to adjust your valves when they get noticeably louder or quieter. Louder = loose. Quieter = tight. Loose is better than tight. Too tight can lead to burnt valves and low compression. I adjust my valves at the start of every season.
