The chain doesn't "catch", it's position is fixed by the teeth on the sprockets. When you engaged first gear the sprocket rotated ever so slightly, moving the chain. Your chain does seem a little too loose, make sure you read the manual on line here so you know how to do that instead of just turning screws.

i guess i should have said catching the slack in the chain and making a click. i know its not likley

well i tensioned the chain so that's all good now, back to the click


what i mean is if i disengage the clutch, up shift to a another gear (normal click) than engage the clutch while only giving it enough throttle to keep the bike moving at the speed it is already going (sometimes i get click again that sounds just like the normal click when you shift gears)..... if i do that same exact process but give it enough throttle to speed up i have never heard a second click..
