Do I need one of those fancy tools to break a chain?
Or can I make do with normal garage tools. I have just about everything.
I may actually get around to replacing the chain and sprockets on Jr's KX.
Of course I may have the wrong size chain
I went up a tooth or two in the rear and ordered the stock sized chain. But the current set up isn't stock, I don't think?
Anyway, I usually go about stuff half-assed, so this is nothing new.
We'll find out soon.
edit-current set up is 14/51 with a 120 chain or a 122. I counted 61
I have a 14/53 to put on and a new 120 chain. Should fit, right?
I have been having problems with the server running out of resources and giving errors. It is better but I'm still getting some periodically. Please report any you get to me at ken@kyler.com.

Re: chain breaker
To shorten the chain just use a grinder and grind the mushroom off the end of the pin than use a punch and tap it through.

Dremel does the job too. To install a new rivet type master link, I do think you will need a chain tool to do the riveting. I think the Motion Pro is the cheapest, and riveting the link is the only thing it is good for. Worthwhile investment IMO.

If you are using a clip master link it's not really needed, but it's a good investment.
