Hey- I’ve done these before on our other KTMs, and the flat side of the sprocket typically seems to go facing out. I’m installing this primary drive 13 tooth on the counter shaft, and flat side in (with spacing flange out) seems to line up better with the flat side in. That way, the logo and tooth count etching faxes out as well. Can anybody confirm which way?

TIA!

The flat side goes out (with 07/20 facing out). The shoulder goes in towards the case. Once installed, move the chain slider to center the chain line. The chain slider can move in or out a little. I've had to adjust the chain slider to straighten the chain line a fore times on my KTMs.

Thanks, makes sense. That slider wiggles...didn’t even check that!

Those chain sliders are inexpensive to repair with oem parts as well
