if the chain is touching or riding on the pipe,either it is stretched,too many links or the wheel needs to be set back and aligned.
chain length is 102 links.make sure if you set the wheel back,it is aligned properly.

You ride a motorcycle and you don't know that the chain needs to be tightened from time to time? When was the last time you put lube on it or checked the condition of the sprockets?
