Is this the origional chain if so you have changed the sprockets to the point where

you need a longer chain. If it is a chain you have just purchased send it back and

get one with more links. Also the chain adjustment blocks have two sides, one side

is shorter then the other this will give you more chain slack. The other side is longer

it takes up slack when you run out of adjustment on the small side. You may have

switched to SM rims and flipped the chain blocks to the longer side and now

you don't have enough chain slack, which is VERY BAD don't ride until the problem

is corrected. Hope this helps

is it a new chain????? if you are using the sprockets you took off the dirt wheel and stock chain it should be the same no matter what wheels you have...

you can look at the chain adjusting blocks without taking anything apart look at where your axle goes through your swingarm at each end of the axle is where you adjustment blocks are you will see that the blocks have 2 different ends.
