Numpty here took off the front sprocket today but got distracted and forgot which way round the sprocket goes.

Either flat face of the sprocket facing the engine which moves the cahin in at the front or flat face facing outwards keeping the chain away from the engine.

Please help as I am out on the bike tomorrow and know I have already managed the wrong way once.

Thanks
Mark

Depends on the bike Mark, My 583 SS had the flat side out. This 620ie has the flat side in.

Just straight edge it from your rear sprocket, you can sight the chain also, unless you have a pi55ed up eye.

Normally in imprint on socket where it's had the plate fixed

Unless you are a double numpty and the inprint is from the last time you did it wrong.

You went well today Mark, looks like you got the sprocket on the right way.
