Hey all,

When I bought the bike there was no Fritzco sprockets available in the country, so I fitted an XR650R sprocket in the meantime (BTW, https://dirtbikeafrica.com/ now has stock of the Fritzco's and I will fit mine soon). When I fitted the XRR sprocket, I had to remove about 1mm from the inside (outside on the R) face... luckily a friend with a lathe offered to do it. The alignment is not visibly out, but if I remove the sprocket I can see the chain is wearing the one side more than the other.

Here's a short video explaining my experience:
