TDM rear sprocket

I need a rear 42 tooth sprocket as fitted to the TDM but I need one that is like the original with the recessed inner bit as I need to put it on 'flipped' so the chain lines up following my YZF rear wheel change.
Anyone out there with a TDM who knows where I can get one, or anyone put this sprocket on their TRX and knows where to get one?
I know I can get a TDM 42 tooth job from the likes of Renthal etc but these are flat on both sides, so no good for me to 'flip' to move it inwards 2mm to line my chain up.
Also spoke to Yamaha about getting an OE replacement and it's £55 !!
Cheers,
Dave.

The one in the Kedo catalog looks like it's recessed. It is on page 144, available on their website in pdf. Steel is 17.5 euro. Ally is 29.9 euro.

Cheers Tony: if you've got a spare one with some life left in it, there's cash waiting!
Failing that, Kedo looks like a good bet, ta Mart.

Thanks for looking anyway Tony.
I've ordered an AFAM 1996-8 TDM steel rear 42 tooth one from Bike Torque Racing as it has the 'recess' on one side: ta Max, you were right.
Cost about £30 delivered.

POSTSCRIPT:
Sprocket came today, and it doesn't fit!!
All TDM850 sprockets, whatever year, won't fit the TRX!!
Apparantly the one I need is the standard fitment on a TDM900 being 42 teeth, so ordered that one instead.

AFAM should have several sizes available for the TRX, why did you order for a TDM?

Cos they only had the standard 39 listed for the TRX at this particular emporium, but the TDM900 is the same AFAM code number as the TRX so fits (bolt holes are in the same place).
I thought I'd read somewhere that TDM850 sprox fit the TRX so went for that one.
In a nutshell, I f*ck up, OK!
