great tool to have but needs better pins
MATTHEW in NJ
Comments On Mar 20, 2013:I bought this chain tool to do the timing chain on my polaris outlaw 525. It did the job but after one use the pins broke. the upside is , the motion pro replacement pins will fit the tusk press. The motion pro pins cost around 6 bucks so even buying a few extra pins the cost is still better then buying the motion pro tool. I would suggest buying afew extra motion pro replacement pins when buying this tusk timing chain breaker/press.

Decent little tool
Joseph in RI
Comments On Jun 28, 2012:I got this tool to rivet my new 520 chain. It worked perfectly. I have not used this for breaking a chain yet so I can not say how well it works for that. I would recommend this for anyone who needs to rivet a new motorcycle chain.

Works great.
Dan in CO
Comments On May 05, 2012:I found that by grinding the end off the link, it breaks the pin out with ease. I recommend sharpening the flaring tip to help prevent it from walking. Great tool for the price.

It worked the first time..
Ken in CO
Comments On Mar 06, 2012:I now consider this a single use product. Worked great for me the first time for splitting and pressing in a new master link on my KTM cam chain. The second time, the brittle push pin just snapped. Everything was aligned property and the guide was being used. Unfortunately the metal used for the little "breaker" pins just isn't a strong enough for repeated use in this application.

Excellent Value
perry in CA
Comments On Mar 15, 2011:no matter what kind of tool you use, you should always grind the rivet head flush with the link before attempting using any tool to press it out, with that said this is a beautiful kit with multi function capability, i used a harbour freight tool to drive the pin out but the riveting thing was a little vague, i ordered and used this kit to rivet my shiny new ek 530 xring chain, it worked great and since riveting my new chain using this tool the new chain has had several pulls to 175 mph + ,

Works ok quality small pin did not last long
Tim in MI
Comments On Jan 29, 2011:I bought to do a cam chain on a Husaberg that uses a split link. Just wanted to have as much insurance as possible that master link would stay together. Have used for a couple other chains since.
