When you go down on sproket sizes its obvisouly going to have more slack, you just lost area that it went around. And you may want to tighten your sprokets, and for inline my KX sproket arent inline at all, id say around an inch off differance. But my swingarm is also 5x longer than your 50s.

All you need to do in this situation is put the chain back on as you are rolling the bike backwards.... I promise it will pop back on everytime....

Using a twig or stick to lever it on makes it even easier.

For more torque go with a bigger rear smaller front, for speed its visa versa

Re: Keeping the tension in ur chain tight

buy a good chain
streches a couple of times and your done
no more strechy
they gots all kinds o colors
so you kill two birds with one stone
good chain and some bling bling for your ride
also helps to lube the phucer every once in awhile too
