Removing links from chain?

I put a -2 sprocket on the front of my CB450, but now I need to take a link or two out of my chain.. How do I do that? I looked for the master link, but I cant seem to find one. What kinda tools do I need and how do I do it?

Thanks

grind the rivits off with a grinder and get a new master link. You can pick up a chain breaker pretty cheap at most shops.

Dremel with cutting wheel works like a charm!
