Questions & AnswersHello my name is Mario. I'm here with Expert Village and I'm going to show you how to change a chain and sprocket on a sport bike. Now that we've gotten the link on we have to spread the rivet. So you want to find a tool, this is not a rivet spreading tool, but it will do the job it just got like a rounded tip on it. You insert it in here then what your going to do it just hit it to spread the rivet out over the link. You don't want to hit it when it?s over here because your sprocket still has not back on it, so you want to just spin it up here. Get your master link to where the spring arm's at so you have something solid to hit it against. Just take your wheel and just like this. Now just for safeties have your buddy stand on the other side of the bike so you don't knock your bike off the stand. Then you just hit it in, just like so. That's one side, twist it back a little bit, can you twist that back. That's good. Now you want to do the next one.
