Motion Pro 08-0470 PBR Chain Breaker

Changed my first chain with this tool yesterday. Everything worked well. They included an extra rivet extraction pin. I didnt file off the rivet heads and had no issues breaking the old chain or removing a link from the new chain.

I have been repairing motorcycles for over 30 years. I decided that it was time for a new tool. I decided one this tool because of previous experience with motion pro tools, and reading reviews. I was very happy with the operation, and ease of use of this tool. I would recommend this tool.

The rear sprocket on my G650GS looks like its nearing the end of its life. With a preference to do everything myself, I began purchasing tools I would need to replace the chain and sprockets. There are a lot of different chain breaker and rivet kits out there. Most of them are cheap and not worth the money. Motion Pro makes two chain breaker and rivet kit, the more expensive one here is the one you should get. What stood out with this kit is that its not intended for single use (Good luck getting more than a single use from the kits under $100. In fact, plan to have the pins break or the threads strip the first time around and unable to finish the job with those less expensive kits). Its intended to be maintained and the threads cleaned and greased between uses. In fact, it even came with a small pack of grease to help you do that. This kit also came with colored instructions written by someone who speaks English and detailed pictures showing you each step of the process from breaking, pressing, and riveting. Its been a long time since Ive purchased a tool with such high quality and well put together instructions (actually I cant remember any tool I have which even comes close)! The tool came in its own little box. It has fewer parts than the typical run of the mill kit, but this is actually a benefit of this kit. You see rather manufacturer different anvils and press plates for the job, Motion Pro designed all those features into a neat little block that you rotate on the breaker tool to carry out the different functions. No more fumbling with figuring out which adapters or part you need for what you are doing. The multi-function block in this kit has the letters R, B, and P stenciled on it. You simply rotate the block to align the letters on the breaker tool to rivet, break, or press. Brilliant! The Motion Pro kit is also one of those kits where the pin is actually strong enough to break the roller pin on the chain. However, there is no need to put the tool to this kind of abuse. I simply grounded of the head of the pin with an angle grinder first. This is a great kit for anyone wanting to replace their chains on their own. Please dont cheap out on a cheaper kit and just buy this Motion Pro kit instead. The extra money you spend will save you time and frustration working with inferior quality tools that would break or improperly install your chain. Motion Pro makes great products and this PBR chain breaker tool is one of them!

Works fine so far. Seems great quality

Great chain tool. Very well made and quite durable.

Rivet tool has no way to tell how far to go. Broke it first time I used it..

It just works. Dont waste your time trying to use the cheaper options. Will rivet either type of master link you will run into.

More expensive then the other options on Amazon, but if you want a tool that was built to last forever and can do everything you could ever need in regards to motorcycle/atv/dirtbike chains, this is it.

Save me a bunch and was easy to do.

Ive been using mine for 7 years. I was concerned that it was overpriced, at the time of purchase, but its paid for itself and has been reliable. I use a long extended wrench for riveting the master link and that has been a game changer too.
