There's a measurement-spec in manual, measure between 10 or 12 links or something and that number will tell you condition of cam-chain. Worn chain may be beyond adjustment range of tensioner.
I've owned it since 22,000 km (13,500 miles). I know I'm the third owner and I do the regular services, although I've never done valve clearances, will be doing that on Friday. The previous owner had regular services done by a mechanic (I have receipts). No idea on the first owner though.

Can it be measured without removing it?
