You won't lose that much oil. Maybe a couple of teaspoons worth if it's on a swinarm stand. None of you lean it the opposite way of the side you're changing.

 

thank you all, guess it is about time for a torque wrench. Ill post pics when it is complete.

 

I am not understanding something very crucial to my decision of buying these engine covers. I'm looking at the pictures and it is just not adding up.

Left side looks ok...
this:

replaces this


ok now this right side is messing me all up.

how does this:


replace this:????


i know im doing something wrong, am i looking at the wrong part on the bike itself?

 

The RH cover is the Ignitor IC cover which is forward of the clutch cover (you'll see when you remove the mid & lowerfairings. As far as I know, they don't make a aftermarket clutch cover. And you won't lose hardly any oil if it's on the swingarm stand by removing those 2 covers. If you remove the clutch cover, do it on the sidestand to prevent oil loss. Also, it the oil is fairly new, you don't have to change it when doing the covers as long as you don't get a bunch of crap & gasket debris inside.

 

speed's always on the ball..lol

that cover is what i personally call a trigger coil cover..
and it only covers the "trigger" or "pulse" coil that commands the ignition to fire.

keep some LINT FREE rags handy for the bits of gasket that you may have to remove. the mating surfaces gotta be clean and smooth for a superb seal. i always always always wipe the inside of the case before reinstalling a cover, just to be safe. i can't have a customer ride off, and a chunk of crap get lodged in a trans bearing or shift fork, or anything else.

just good workmanship. and safe practice..

 

Right side is very easy I didn't think woodcraft was making one for our bike but if they are you need to remove the fairing it's not the whole clucth case you shouldn't lose any oil. The left side wouldbe more of what you want. You can not even race in several organizations with our bike with stock cover it's paper thin "trust me I smashed mine with a simple low side and destroyed my stator". Your stator will bolt directly to this cover make sure you use lock tight and a torque wrench I can't stress that enough. I did mine quick once and destroyed another stator and my bike shut off in the middle of a race a VIR coming down the front staight make sure you get a new gasket and sealer and on this side if you have a buddy get him to lean the bike side ways toward the right side and you won't loose any oil. Good luck careful with that stator they're about $360 new OEM or $160 aftermarket and hard to find trust me i've gone throughtwo and three covers on this bike.
