I use a grinder and punch. Grind the rivits on one plate down flush, then grind a bit more, thinning the side plate as well as shortening the rivits. Then move the grinder and hit it real fast from a few directions, sometimes you drag material sideways, this will remove that. Take the punch and hammer and after you spin this plate to the sprocket at comfortable location, hammer back and forth on the two rivits, backing the link towards the wheel.
