Personally I'd think about about replacing the chain - why jeopardise the trip, the bike or even their lives for a length of cheap chain?
Not sure if these bikes have oil filters, I know my late 70's XL500 only had a wire mesh strainer? Clean it out, who knows what gunge has accumulated over time?
As Nate said, do the trip & keep clear of major highways. Even if you only travel for a few months, you're bound to have a great time.
