My brother dropped my bike and damaged a vgood alternator cover and scuffed the handlebar grip and broke my bar end mirror. Anyone have a spare alternator cover, or some tips on brining this one back to life?

How bad is the cover? Any pictures? If it is not broke it should work unless it been cracked? I've polished out many of scratches,even some deep ones to bring back to a useable part. Need more input

I also run engine guard crome tubes that protect that area. NOT to rub salt in the wound

If the cover is cracked / missing a small piece, be aware that cover doesnt have any oil behind it - you can do a quick "patch" with some silicone to prevent moisture or road debris from getting in there until you can find a replacement cover.

I have gouges in mine from smacking a dump truck 15 years ago. Mine is not cracked so I polish it and consider it a trophy from the past. I see it every time I get on the bike and it reminds me of the dangers of riding.
