when u adjust your chain theres that little gauge thingy on the swingarm and above it theres a little notch, well when the notch is directly above the red line, this would mean that the chain is fucked, or does it? cause i was reading in the service manual and it says the red line goes to end of swingarm before chain is rooted. i just went out and bought new chain and sprockets but dont want to use unless have to cost me $350

You can't really go by the stickers as they are not all that accurate. If you have changed either sprocket, they're gonna be off, so I wouldn't even worry about them. The most obvious sign of a dying chain is the "popping" on the sprocket regardless of how well you keep it lubed. This means that a link in the chain is binding and it's only a matter of time before it breaks.
