Here's an out-of-focus image of my stator cover replacement. Not sure if it'll end up powdercoated, or just remain a rattle can job.

I've tried twice. I'll try one more time since there's a extra one and I don't have to worry about ruining it. I"ll can bake the shat out of it, and hopefully it will be good.

Must be made of something other than steel?

Some sort of plastic.

Added a much needed HP decal. 62 HP wasn't enough...

No. Not going to mess with it until I have it fully assembled.
Per MY break-in procedure, I need to be able to ride it in the third heat cycle. So I'm just waiting for the rear rim at this point. -BIG DAN
