anything special to consider when chging the stator cover?
You might need more than 2 hands to remove it. Those magnets in there are unbelievably strong and you don't want to pry it off, risking damage to the engine's gasket surface.

Did you buy a new gasket??? The stock gaskets that are on most bikes are like paper, they dry up and crack easily. My friends did that, and when he went to put the stator cover back on there was an invisible crack that leaked oil from the top side until he got a new gasket.

I bought a new gasket, but after spending 30 minutes scraping off about 1/8" of the old one, I quit. I put a nice bead of liquid gasket around the stator cover and put it back on. Never leaked a drop.

Yea i didnt buy a gasket, i'm pretty sure honda uses Honda glue or something to gasket the stator cover. either way thats what i'll use to put the new one on.

Thx for the tip on getting it off... i messed around with it for a while today and couldnt figure out why it wasnt budging.

Seriously...

Yeah, it uses honda high temp liquid gasket. It's hard as fuck to get it off. Try to find a good pry point with something plastic or something that won't damage the motor.
