Actually... black is better than brown from rust. So you got that going for you :) And no... you don't have to scrub on it until its "sparkling metal" again.

Have a look here (http://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/How_do_I_clean_the_drivechain%3F) for chain cleaning info. And since your there, you might as well check the chain slack while your working. You can find that here (http://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/How_do_I_measure_chain_slack%3F).
