just got meself a new genuine ktm rear steel sprocket and the teeth look really pointy on it alot pointier than the one coming off, i always thought new sprockets had flat tops on them , what do you guys think of this??

Lot of different tooth profiles. Thicker top ones should last longer. pointy ones are good for chain engagement.
