What he is looking for is a way to run the chain a bit looser to simply make the job easier. You are correct that you can install and remove the sprocket without having to do anything else with the proper chain tension, although it can be a royal pain in the rear. Having the chain just a it more slack with a tensioner would allow him to simply remove tension, swap, and add tension again.


Honestly, I say give it a try. I don't know of anybody using one on a Hawk, but I miss posts sometimes and it may have been before I joined.
