Have you checked the front/rear sprocket alignment?

So here's what I have; 2001 drifter 800, previous owner installed JT 17/42 sprockets and Regina chain. It has been making a zzzzzzz sound and gotten worse, at first I thought it may have been the front bearing but it got louder and was able to isolate it to the chain and sprocket. Yes I have been cleaning and lubing the chain. But for this season (I got it last year and didn't do much riding) i took it out and got much worse, and decided to to do a deep clean and line of the chain and sprockets. Didn't fix it, tightened it up just a tad and it made it a ton worse, so loosened it and did nothing so put it back to spec slack. Not sure if it's the sprocket the chain etc. so should I just replace the chain and sprockets and should I keep the 17/42 or put it back to the stock 17/40?
