My stock 530 chain on my '04 R6 lasted me until I traded it in at 19,500 miles. It was definately on its last leg though, they changed it out before they put it back up for sale. I kept it oiled pretty good, too. My stock 525 on my '06 R6 lasted until I traded it in with a little over 12,000 miles on it, including 7 track days. Still had a decent amount of life in it, they kept it on the bike and put it back up for sale a few days later. Yamaha puts DIDs on their bikes, too.
