Here you go.

I've got the EK professional kit. The motion pro kit is great. You can do the job with the cheaper tool and the grinder, but I prefer the EK tool of all of them. I've seen it done without a tool, but I wouldn't do it on mine.
 
I have the motion pro big tool, I have yet used it.  I have a new stock replacement chain that I acquired, so I ordered two (need to have a spare just in case I screwed up) mater links.  There is a section in the repair manual that gives the details on how to crimp (squish) the pin and measurements for acceptance criteria.

I just happen to have a picture of the tool in my photo library

This is the best tool out,the small two press plate doesn't have a way to flare the pins out.I can get you one if you like(they aren't cheap)....
 
3 posts since aug of 05. You must be spending more time on the Polaris XC700? Where you located?
 
(Powers739 @ Feb. 18 2007,12:32) Golden, are you saying I need additional plates???
I was referring to the one that rythmn has in the link above,it only presses plates on it DOESN'T rivet the link on.The tool you got it the Jumbo tool,I have the Pro one which is a little different.
 
thanks for the info. do you need a link press or can you use pliers to get the link together? golden child i sent you a e mail for some parts.

Same exact set for $55

Good price coming from Isarel...
 
The one from Israel is just an example. There is also the same tool available from Calif, Ill, Florida, etc...
 
Golden Child is offering a Motion Pro brand chain breaker and rivet tool. I don't think it is fair to try to price match with items that may simply be inferior copies of the 1st line tool.

By comparison, I see you are listing Gilles rearsets in your signature. If price is your only concern, why didn't you buy these? <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Adjustable-Rearsets-SUZUKI-GSXR1300-GSXR-1300-HAYABUSA_W0QQitemZ150098147984QQihZ005QQcate

Professor, price is never a concern as should be apprarent by my sig. He11, my last custom build cost me over $65K. However, how often is a chain tool really used? I just put Gixx1300R extensions and a new 530ZZZ chain on using a $9.95 chain tool that I borrowed and it worked great.
