I've got an issue with my 98 as well. Anything from about 1000 to 3500 rpm causes my bike to buck... this only happens on light throttle. If I try to accelerate from a low speed in first, unitil about 4000 rpm's the bike boggs, and bucks... as soon as I get above 4000 rpms the bike comes to life and works perfectly. I have also done a tune up which did not correct this concern.
As far as the chain, in my opinion I would go for the high performance chain and spend the extra money. Chain failures terrify me.
