I haven't fooled with the chain except to remove and clean it a few time but check it before I removed it and was okay. I have over 1600 miles on the chain and has very little side play. They must have sent out a batch of Hawks with decent chains.
i too seemed to have gotten a good chain over a 1000 and going strong on it. adjusting every 50 miles seems like it didnt come with any lubricant on it to me.
