fck55mph Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 :mad: I dont go into deep water or anything,maybe the occasional puddle and a little mud. During some riding and mostly when washing, I keep getting water into the flywheel cover. I have replaced the cover gasket and siliconed the wire grommet but water still comes in a little bit. I notice when I wash the bike, alot of water puddles right there on the cases. Any solutions to this P.I.T.A.??? Thanks for any input! Quote
rubberneck Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 There is a small rubber plug (kind of oval shaped with one flat side) that goes in the webb on the case that separates the area where the stator is and the sprocket. Look there, i bet that plug is not in there. Quote
fck55mph Posted February 4, 2009 Author Report Posted February 4, 2009 yeah, the plug is there and i put a little silicone around it too. I guess, I will buy a new one of those grommets and then re-seal it. I just thought I couldn't be the only one that this happens to. just frikkin annoying as hell is all. thanks for the input Quote
Snopczynski Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 Paint the flywheel with a heat resistant engine paint, then when you re-assemble it spray a little wd40 in there. It displaces water. Quote

Snopczynski Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 Just make sure you don't paint the triggers. or the inside of the shaft, and the bell. Quote
