Timing chain life span?

I know the general consensus is that a timing chain should last the life of the engine, but how many of us are almost at 100k miles and still haven't thought about changing the timing chain? I ask because I'm about to order a valve cover gasket for an upcoming valve adjustment and was wondering if I should change the chain and guides while I'm in there

Haha, my new-to-me 2014 only has 25,000km on it, and I only had the first two bikes for about 25,000km each... I'll get back to you in a couple of years ;-)
