FRONT SPROCKET
unlikely, but could be possible something is obstructing it. i say yank it and see what's going on with it.
what happened before the noise came about?
after i swapped mine, i had an unusual clicking sound. i took off the sprocket, reinstalled it and re-torqued it to spec, then sound was gone.

NOTHIN HAS HAPPENED I JUST TIGHTENED UP THE CHAIN A LITTLE AND IT STARTED HAPPENING IM THINKIN BOUT GETTING A NEW SPROCKET THEY R PRETTY CHEAP AND INSTALLIN IT AND TORQUING IT DOWN THE SAME THING IS HAPENING IT SOUND LIKE A CLICKING KINDA NOISE HOPEFULLY THAT WILL DO THE TRICK AND O YEA HOW MUCH PLAY SHOULD BE IN THE CHAIN WHEN U TIGHTEN IT BOUT AND INCH OR SO?
A bad chain can click when it goes around the front sprocket. Do you have a swingarm stand? If so, spin the wheel and look for tight spots or kinks when it goes around the rear sprocket. They'll be even more noticeable on the smaller front and will/can click. Also, notice if it clicks at the same part(s) of the chain each time around.
I'm new to the F3 and haven't read the manual on chain adj yet but an inch of easy movement sounds right. Too tight can cause problems! [:@]
Good luck.

Your chain is F***ed get a new one, the most expensive one you can afford.
and everytime you lub it clean it 1st, your just lubing over road dirt and dust forcing it deeper into the chain rollers if you don't.
look after your chain and it will look after you,

That sounds like a cheap one 80 dollars is only about £54, I don't think you'll get 8 months out of that
I've just put a DID xxx O ring chain on that cost me £110 alone for the chain, & that will only last 4000mls even less in this climate [
