hi ya when removing the stator cover bear one thing in mind as i found out recently to my dismay, inside the cover is a race bearing which is attached to the end of the alternator shaft and inside that unit also comes a oil seal depending on the age and mileage of bike this bearing may well fall apart, inturn creating a real head ache, honda say the shaft comes with the bearing complete and can not supply with out shaft uk price £450 pounds also to replace this shaft means a complete engine strip. I have asked if other members have got a work around for this and am still awaiting a reply, just worth thinking about

I don't think I'll have to worry about since my bike only has 5,000 miles on it, but I'm going to try to paint it without removing it at first. Thanks for the info though.

Hey I saw something on line that you might be interested in. Its a stator cover made of Carbon fiber, all you have to do is clean the one thats on there now and stick the carbon one on over the old one. It looks sharp. I dont know where I saw it but when I go to work tonight I will look for the site for you. Speaking of work I better get going.

Yeah I have looked into those, but it was $85 for the one that I found. Yeah I think it would look really good, but I'm not sure if its worth $85. If you find the link send it over and if its not too bad I'll get one of those, if they were like $40 or so I would have gotten one already.

www.oppracing.com that is were those carbon covers are they look clean as hell

58cycle.com has the carbon cover for the stator and they have one for the clutch cover too i am probuably going to get both eventually to hide the scratches on my stator and keep everything symmetrical i would get em soon but i just shelled out $850 for a power commander and hyperpro dampener
