Well I couldn't wait. I pulled it off for the first time since 1974. Used a pan to catch all the oil as WG suggested awhile back to Roland.
Replaced the cover but not the black grommet since I didn't order one .
I used my handy dandy rtv LIGHTY on both sides of the gasket. I put sixty miles on it so far and ( fingers crossed ) no leaks:) Of course I sliced the crap out of my finger with the old stator cover. Those dang edges are SHARP!!!!
Thanks for the input from everyone. I can honestly say that without this site and it's members the bike and I would be up a creek without a paddle!!!
By the way, when I look at it now, all I see is that pretty polished UNscratched stator cover
Now to make sure it NEVER gets another scratch!!
Thanks guys.
Pat
