The Motion Pro tool I bought has this tip as part of the instructions. 
In fact it's actually a warning, that you "must" grind the head off or 
you will break the tool. I know, real men don't need instructions, but 
since I never had seen one used it was a necessity. It worked just as 
advertised for breaking and installing the new chain.

Put 300 miles on Hwy 36 yesterday. Felt a lot better with new chain, 
sprockets, and front and rear rubber.
