Yes,

You need it to join the two ends together. There is no other way to smoothly unite the ends of a drive chain.

Do all biycicle chains have a master link?

No. Shimano for instance originally supply a special joining pin instead of a Master link(or quick link). Chains for single-speed or internally geared bikes can usually be opened or closed using only the stock pins that are already used everywhere in the chain. Quicklinks are useful for maintenance and can be easily retrofitted to any bike chain.


How do you change a chain on a 2002 YZF 600R?

there should be a master link with a clip. with a screw driver try to take the clip off and pop off the master link,try to have bike in neutral with rear tire off the ground. it is really hard to get the clip off the link sometimes and you might poke a few holes in your hand trying. My chains are always riveted on for racing and I always use a grinder to cut my chains off. So if you can not get the clip off the master link use a grinder. there should be a master link with a clip. with a screw driver try to take the clip off and pop off the master link,try to have bike in neutral with rear tire off the ground. it is really hard to get the clip off the link sometimes and you might poke a few holes in your hand trying.
