    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hi - I'm looking for at good solid cam chain breaker/rivet tool. Any recommendations?
Many thanks
Kim
 
Good chain tools cost a lot of money. You can find some as sold by the various chain manufacturers. I've got a Chinese cheepie that's okay for pushing pins out, as long as you grind off the head first. They do okay with smashing over a hollow pin rivet link too.
 
I have a Motion pro branded one I think... regardless it's the same model as that Pit Posse. It's been alright, I usually grind the pin head down a bit too before trying to push it through or I just cut the chain links if I'm just removing an old chain.

Cam chains are usually smaller. I would think you'll be fine pushing a pin straight through that. :)
 
Edit: just noticed the OP is looking to work with cam chains. I miss that part before.

I don't know of any tools for cam chains.
 
Wow ! Good to know. I have a breaker and staker tool for my KTM RFS cam chain. I wonder if that would work ? Although
the KTM cam chain is a bit smaller.
