The left hand side generator cover has been holed by a stone. I have ordered a replacement cover ana a gasket.
Looking at the parts diagram it looks like the cover supports a roller bearing that will need to be swapped over. What temperature is recommended to heat the cover to allow for removal and insertion. I am guessing the cover is magnesium but could be aluminum.
Since there is a gasket I was not planning using a sealent/goo. I have never owned a Japanese bike before but I would assume this is the case.
I have the service manual so I know bolt torque settings and am aware of need to use loctite.
