Got a brand new chain and sprocket for my dt, and the chain keeps coming loose EVERYTIME i ride it, both on equal numbers when i tighten them up, both on 11,,, not far off the end, how do i lower the number then re-tighten up with out me going back to number 11?.. it's a pain

MOST CHAINS DO STRETCH mate depends how expensive they are lol, just keep adjusting is or put it at smallest adjustment and take a few links out, it will stop stretchin when its bed in
how can a chain be brand new if it was fitted like 4000 miles ago? and are you fitting the chain with the bike raised up or down on the floor with it on the stand? but either way, 4k miles for a chain is a damn long distance and it's probably weak as heck now and will forever stretch... plus, stop wheeling it'll last longer!
This kids been doing a stoppie everywhere! How in the world can you do 4000 miles on a chain and it be brand new? I'd hate to buy something 'brand new' off you on eBay lol
Plus I've done about 10k on my chain :| When I got the bike It had done about 3500 miles (supposively). So I reckon its the original chain. Then I did about 8k miles on it. Then it got nicked. That was 9 months ago. And I'm still riding round on it. 4K doesn't sound like a lot. On my Aprilia on the other hand. That was like every 1k miles had to get a new chain lol.
