Is it going to last forever?
I am just shy of 20k miles and I have never seen a OEM chain go this long before. Especially since its a RK I think its the big 18T front sprocket helping out the situation. Either way I am happy to get this kind of life out of a OEM chain. Mine never needs adjustment either, no kinking, no rust dust appearing. I don't lube it often either. I do keep it clean for the most part not like some here but clean by my standards. WD40 on a old sock and I wipe it down thats it. I use Bel-Ray Super clean lube when I do use lube. I don't run it tight either. If I can push it up to the swingarm slider while I am on the bike its good to go.
YMMV
