Rivet Master Link

[Duncan]

What's the lowdown on the riveted master link?
Is it ok to reuse as long as I peen the pins with tool?
Will a standard DID 520 master link fit?
Can get any 520 rivet link or must get same brand/model?

Thanks in advance.

I have zero experience with rivet style master links.
The oem chain is: RK MXU UW-ring Gold 520.
These should be the correct clip style master link:

You should change to one of these or widen the stock Chain guide if you go with the clip-on. It will make a lot of noise and could knocked off the clip if you push the bike backwards. F-ing expensive though.
