Yes, This in my oppinion is a prety comon problem. I have an engine , that I picked up very cheap, because the timing chain broke.The bike had about 30K miles, but was abused a lot. The root of the evil is a bad air filtration and not enough oil changes. When You have dust particles in the oil they work like a sand paper and because You have so many links, the result of the wear multiplies fast. It will be a good idea to change the chain. The price is about $90. You will need a clutch cover gasket- roughly $13. It will be Your decidion do You want to change the famous leaky plug, but for $7 I'd replace it. The cam chain tentioner is automatic and I don't see a way to go to a mechanical, because it is inside the engine and there is no way to adjust it without pulling the right side cover off.
