No, none of the covers, including the one I originally took off immediately after taking it off, could just be held up to the bike flush, too much weird stuff going on with the magnets, I figured. Getting it off is difficult too. There's no feeling of metal being dragged against anything though. which is why I figured it was a weird magnetic thing.
With all the names (generator, magneto, stator, etc) being applied to different parts in there I'm a bit foggy on which is which. What you're talking about, blaine, is the big metal cylinder that's attached to the body of the bike and rotates around the coil-y flower thing that's attached to the cover? How could it possibly be mis-seated? |

Flywheel? Another term? So that's the part that goes around the stator, the part that you're looking at when you open the window to look for the line for TDC?
As soon as finals crunch is over, I'm going to take that cover off and take a close look at the case side of this whole situation. I'll take the stator off the cover and see what I can see about how the holes all line up and all that to try and figure out if the flaw is in the case, all 3 covers (ha!), or just the mechanic. |

Hahaha, so the good news is, I didn't crack my 3rd, bad news is I did crack my starter driven gear.
Any ideas about this? The shaft coming out of the gears to the left seems to be fitting overly snuggly into its slot in the magneto cover and I don't see the top, smaller gear of that pair on any of the diagrams in the service manual or in the parts fische (though I'm really not sure I'm looking at the right figure in the fische) Last edited by ImaginativeFig; 04-23-2014 at 10:26 PM. |

Did you you read through BadBob's tear down and replacement? It had photos and everything. Have I not brought that up before? Maybe it was somewhere else that I mentioned that.
