thanks!

Coolness factor is pretty high! But think about this for a sec.. What do screws do best on motorcycles??
They loosen up and fall off over time... sometimes not too much time too.
It would be just another thing to add to your routine bike check list and if i had it on my bike i'd be checking that thing everytime i stopped . Imho...
This is all you need a chain breaker/ riveting tool .

Just rivet it and forget it!

I am with Intimidator on this one. Would not want to have the 2 tiny screws on my mind all the time.

If you are changing up your wheelbase often, the rivets get to be a bit of a PITA.
I have an excellent RK chain breaker and rivet tool, so its not too bad.
I am with ya though, rivets got to be better.
If they had them for the dr series, the screws would be handy for test and tune till I get the wheelbase right
