Default Chain is really jammed!!!!

Hi Guys and Gals,

I was riding my buddy's 04 yfz450 this weekend. I slammed a rock so hard it snapped his factory skid plate in half and caused the chain to jump off the rear sprocket. The chain is now jammed between the the front sprocket and the first roller. We have tried to pry the front sprocket off and it won't budge. Any ideas? Also the frame in front of the roller is dented with the links side by side. I feel real bad messing up his bike can anyone help????

If the rollers are in the way try take them off. If not try a crowbar. If that doesnt work get a some cable and a truck. Yes i was just joking about the cable and truck part...

i've seen the cable and truck part done before... last resort that pulled the whole quad but stretched the chain enough toget it off...

Thanks for the advice. We ended up using a pulley puller and yanked the sprocket off
