Does a new chain get rid of that chain buzz everyone hears?
If so what brand is the best, or quitest?

I'm not the only one whos heard this chain noise bro, and since im new to this bike, im just seeing if it can be reduced. If not, its no big deal, but i've been on enough bikes with quieter chains. I'm not sweatin it, but im also not "out of my mind" for pointing out a noisy chain and seeing if i can do anything about it.You are out of your mind. If that is your criteria for a noisy chain, then all motorcycles with chains have noisy chains. There is no such thing as a quiet chain... you should buy something with a belt drive, but if you listen closely enough, you can hear that too.
...appreciate it man, im just trying to gather some facts and opinions before/if i consider replacing the stock chain....Also, i came to relieze that if i upgrade my exhaust, i doubt this chain noise will be an issue.I should have picked a different figure of speech.. no offense meant.
I think you just hit the nail on the head. Yes there's some noise, I can't hear it at all anymore with my exhaust. I did replace my chain and sprockets a while back when I hit 16,000 miles with Driven sprockets and an EK Chain. The quality on the EK Chain seems very high and is holding up very well, same with the sprockets. I did them after the exhaust so I can't really say if they changed the sound much....but perhaps since this bike's exhaust is quiter than most, the chain noise just "seems" louder than other bikes. Just don't know if changing out the chain will make a difference.
If any experienced/longer owners know what im talking about or have dealt with this before...shed some light.
