I do not think it's the cam chain, as that would make noise the other way around, meaning you rev it at 6000 rpm, then let go of the throttle and the chain whips something in the engine. If the chain was loose enough, you'd hear it at idle.
Your noise issue may be elsewhere. Have you check the exhaust headers? Anything loose there?
Anyway, if your motorcycle is equiped with the factory automaticly adjusted tensioner, then you may reset it, without removing it.
HOW? - Screw driver in the slot in the tensioner (from the outside), turn it clockwise (that will lessen the tension) and then let go. There is a spring inside the tensioner that should push the rod of the tensioner back to its original position, giving you the perfect cam chain tension. If nothing of that happens, THEN replace the tensioner.
You may also make sure the chain is tight enough, if remove the valve cover (easy job, no special tools required). You'll be able to tell right away, if the cam chain is too lose. Which should not be neccessary, if the tensioner works as it should.
People often change parts, that only need resetting and adjusting.
EDIT: When was the last time you changed the oil? ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

Bash the exhaust headers about with a rubber mallet or something similar. Odds on that one is loose or rotted at the exhaust port. It makes a clacking noise similar to big-ends knocking. ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'
