Loose Chain on GSXR

Loose Chain on GSXR
I've been having a problem with my chain getting REALLY slack after about a week or 2 of daily riding.
I went +5 in the back stock front.
I talked to one of the guys at the local shop and he said that he hears that all the time so they just tighten gsxrs up a bit more than normal.
Is anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions?

Re: Loose Chain on GSXR
Is your chain getting old??...
Check your manual, theres a way to measure a number of links to see if it over its limit for stretching. Or just pull the chain at its furthest (rear of the bike) point at the sprocket. If you can pull the chain off the sprocket (horizontally toward the rear) just a little and see between the sprocket and chain - then the chain is bad.
