nsr 125r foxeye chain

[steve-h]

im going to put new chain and sprockets on my nsr125r foxeye
and while i was looking at the chain i could not find a joining link
so presume the chain must be endless
so where can i get a tool for the chain and where is a reputable place to buy the chain + sprocket kit in the uk
also whats the best way to get the front sprocket off

ok, u put the bike into gear and get a mate to lock the back wheel with the back brake, get a breaker bar with the correct size socket and undo the front sprocket, grind the old chain off, remove sprockets and fit the new ones, get the new chain and if its a soft clip, get a ball and pein hammer and mushroom off the copper studs. then torque up all the bolts. get a chain from anywhere, just dont pay £200 for a set cos thats extorsion

If you are changing the chain just bolt crop the old chain off. Or you can use something like a dremel to get through it, they aren't particularly thick chains.

When you put the new one on I'd say use the split link, I've been running one with a split link since I got the bike, and it was fine. Makes chain removal easier.
