This will be my first time changing the chain and sprockets on my old fzs600 (or any motorbike for that matter) and I was wondering if I could get some sage advice.
Do I have the gist of this right?
I'll need toolwise-
Dremel with grinding tool for grinding off the master links rivet heads
Chain splitter / riveter for putting the new chain on
All the usual tools for removing the rear wheel (sockets, big ass torque wrench etc)
Chisel for dealing with the locking washer on the front sprocket
Do I need any other tools?
And do you reckon it'll be doable by a novice in an afternoon? I'll be racing against the clock as I'll be doing it outside, I'm a pleb without a garage unfortunately.
