Hole in engine cover

09 Oct 2019 20:42

Hey y'all, so I put a hole in the cover behind the front sprocket trying to change the sprocket, does anyone know what the cover is called or what my best bet towards repairing the hole would be? Any help is very much appreciated. It's a 1981 Kawasaki kz750e, with a custom extended swingarm and about to be done up frame work..

Probably listed on EB more often as transmission cover.
From the cross-reference at partzilla every KZ650 & KZ750-4 chain drive had the same cover, plus a few other models.
In addition to a new gasket I would also replace the seals. I have no idea how easy it is to replace that cover.
