Tight links are what you need to check for. Sometimes they're obvious to spot and sometimes you'll only notice them with a more thorough check. You might see one or a few links sticking up slightly or they might be out of alignment with the rest or sitting up off the rear sprocket as you spin the wheel. You might also hear a "noise" or feel a rhythmic vibration or knock through the foot pegs. As a check I like to start at the master link and then go around the chain flexing each link to make sure they're all free. If they're all moving freely you shouldn't have any problems just lube it regularly and give it the odd clean.
