    Hate to piss on your chips but you might not be when you put the sprocket carrier back in dude... Looks like they missed the edge ! My paint guy did the same and i only noticed it showed when i put them together and i saw primer, and so they had to go back for a touch up...

    I was going to say my guy normally paints inside the sprocket carrier bit of paint in there won't hurt. Keep the bearing surfaces clean though of course and disk mountng surfaces.
