That's a terrific solution Doug, but where would someone find a timing
chain/crush type master link? Certainly not at a Yamaha store. And how would
you know how many links of chain to get?
I assume that you'd remove the chain adjuster, attach safety wires to
separate links of the bad chain, grind the plates off one link and attach
the new chain to the end in the direction of rotation and feed the new chain
in as you rotate the flywheel (being sure to keep the camshafts in "time").
I've done that on a V8 Mercedes engine. Any other guidance?
Thanks
Bill

Yes you can, but you better be one heck of a mechanic. Make sure it really
needs to be changed. You would have to buy a timing chain with a crush type
master link,
