How does my engine sound; is this a bad cam chain?

Seems to me like I may need an adjuster?
70,000 km on engine - history unknown

Dave, your video is only 10 seconds, go to page five of the tech section and scroll to "this is what a loose cam chain sounds like" it's about four or five posts down.

Dave your bike is idling way too slow, Adjust the idle screw on the left side of the carb. Cant hear the correct engine noises until your idle is set properly.

Dangerously slow idle!... +1 Paul... (the idle shouldn't lope... it should purr steadily)... (you will cook your cam with that idle)...
I don't hear any chain problem,.. (that don't mean it ain't there. I just don't hear it on that recording)...

put you hand on the clutch case, above and behind the oil filter cover.
if you feel it a tappin' there, you gotta case of the cam chain blues.
of course, it don't hurt to open 'er up and take a look see. Si?
