I have a KZ1100 in need of a new timing chain. What is the best timing chain cutting / riveting tool?

Buy a new OEM chain. It's cheaper than a quality chain tool. Plus, I'm not even sure you can buy this type of chain in bulk.

I just rebuilt the top end. So I was hoping to avoid taking the engine back apart, So I'll call it practice or a test run. LOL! This time it's for real.

A little late, but worth a reply...

The JMP tool was made exclusively for this purpose.
It worked exceptionally well for me in 2022.
