I posted something on this in an FAQ - look here...

Other manufacturers use a hard rubber for the swingarm chain slider - it would be really nice to find one that "crosses over" and fits on the gasgas.

Part of the chain slap noise is from more slack allowed by the stock chain guide and the result is slapping against the hard plastic chain slider. I like the hard and slippery rubber - cushions the chain and quieter running.
