Title: removing generator cover fazer 1000 gen 1
Post by: nickodemon on 09 January 2015, 04:22:13 pm
If i remove the generator cover, how much oil will come out? Is it the amount that's behind the casing or will it keep flowing out until the engine oil runs out completely. The reason i'm asking is should i change the oil when removing it or will i get away with just losing a small amount.. The other thing is will i need to replace the gasket or do they usually come off with a tap on the casing and gentle removal.

You shouldn't get any oil from the generator cover but yes, you will need a new gasket.

I always thought there was at least a small amount of oil? I know different bikes do different things, so thought i better ask the question ;)

On the center stand you will loose a bit not much trick is to put 1/2 bit wood or summat to give slight tilt not to much as fucked will fall over this way loose no oil
