Hey,

I crashed my bike last year and the generator cover has got a crack in it! It was laying on its side for some while with oil pissing out of it obviously! Im trying to put the bike back together but as the oil has leaked through this way will I need to replace the generator inside or will just a clean up do?

Also is there anyway of mending the Generator cover, as finding it hard to get a replacement without going to Cradleys lol?

Thanks again

there is supposed to be oil in there

Oh yeah silly my mistake! Been off the bike for a while still not thinking straight!

Thanks anyway
Ciaran

though having said that, a hard knock can damage the generator windings, though i'd wait and see what its like once its back together. Its not hard to whip the genny cover back off if its not charging properly.

Zimm offers a reinforced cover, tig welded and will even paint or powder coat for you if you so wish. viewtopic.php?f=1&t=11272

Sweet nice one! Is there just like a temporary solution like some putty stuff that I can put on it if possible?

ye you can get stuff called 'chemical metal or 'liquid metal' comes in couple of tubes that you mix together that might do the trick.only a few quid so might be worth a try.
