second the chain guide suggestion. when i get some extra cash, i'm planning to invest in an e.13 drs. for now though, i've removed a few links on my chain to make it a bit tighter. so far this has helped somewhat.

Maybe try a chain tensioner, they used to be known as a daves chain device. If your bike is a full suzzi you arnt going to be able to put 1 on. It could just be a simple case that you need to take a couple of links out of yopur chain.
