Yea yea, I shoulda used diesel or kerosene but had none.

My petrol is mixed with 2 stroke oil, so hopefully that's better than just petrol.

Chur for the advice.

What's the deal with ppl against me buying my own chain breaker?

If you get a cheap one, and it peens the rivet inadequately, the chain might let go and kill you. If you buy a chain riveting tool, get yourself a decent one. Of course, how often do you plan on using it? If you're a tool whore like me you'll buy it just cause, but realistically most people are on a budget and would be better off paying someone else a few bucks to do it whenever they need one done.

for how often a chain breaker would be used, its probably hardly worth the expense, you current chain is poked anyway by the look of it. If you order a new chain, they can chop it to the correct length for you anyway, then you just fit with a link. You can also use a grinder and a hammer and punch to shorten it too, it isnt hard.

If you wanna soend the coin though, knock yourself out!

Otherwise, I'm just going to go with bits4bikes RK chains. It's only like 30 bucks for a 428.
