Cant really tell properly,(me being blind as a bat n all) but it looks like that chain is catchin (rubbing) on something.
Looking at the links there a straight line, lower being rust, top being shiny looking at the pins as well.

Could be rubbing on the chain guides, is the chain tight or to loose? if its new its probably stretched.

Just had a look at the piccy of your rmz, you've got a front sprocket cover on, might be rubbing against that? check the alignment of your chain?
