The chains not normally a problem plenty of nobs here with 30K odd miles and still going strong.
More often the tensioner can be subject to failure but this is not that common.

When mine was going through some upgrades we found the tensioners were quite well worn, they didn't require replacing but as extra power was the aim it was done anyway. that was at 18k
