Stator help?
 
4 Attachment(s)
So I wrecked my bike and ordered all parts to replace what I thought needed to be replaced, as I was removing the Cracked stator/alternator cap..a piece fell with a huge bolt still screwed in. Looked further under and saw this:

How ****ed am I? I still owe about $2000 on the bike, worth fixing?

I was thinking maybe a High Temperature Epoxy since that is the only place with the crack. I don't have the money for anything new, but I don't want to half ass it and be back in the garage fixing the same thing again.

Know any good welders? They charge by the hour, typically 100 an hour. That might be a 20 min job, so could be around 40 to repair it.

I don't but I will definitely look into it, $40 is a lot better than getting the whole thing new or even used.

Even with welding, that is going to be a really tough repair job. Getting the pieces all back together is one thing, but re-threading the screw housing is another.

Also, at the looks of the damage, you are looking at the stator itself, flywheel, cover and replacement screws. (which is probably already a whole lot)

Did you have full coverage insurance on the bike? or was the accident somebody's fault?

Well the broken piece sets perfectly fine, all I can hope it when taking the bolt out that it goes smoothly back in. Plus whatever pressure builds up, that it can still hold. As for the Stator and flywheel, I know that the stator still slides smoothly in and out and can spin freely (just checked to make sure the flywheel wasn't bent to the point it couldn't)

Am I okay to wash the stator? Small grass bits got around a little, cleared out everything else. Also, what do I need to apply to the stator? When taking it out I smeared off a lot of crap.
