Default 2014 stator(left side) cover

Poked a hole in my stator cover today laying the bike on its side after a gnarly hill climb. Looking for a new(used) one. What years are compatible??

Thanks
Matt

Don't know how big the hole is, but it could be TIG or MIG welded by a good welder that knows bikes and won't gob aluminum on it, could probably fix it for far less.

Just another avenue.

You're welcome.
Look up posts by member dan888.
He made a very nice bash plate to protect the stator cover.

I have an emperor racing skidplate on mine and it does a reasonably good job of protecting the sides of the engine:
Kawasaki KLX250 Heavy Duty Skid Plate | Emperor Racing

I have repeatedly bashed mine on large rocks on the trails and it's taken a beating but protected the bike well.

TIG worked on a concours Bultaco Metralla my brother and I had. Seems aluminum can be welded and finished to look like the original polished cast clutch cover in that case. I also think it cost a bit less than $144!

By the way, the hole from a thrown chain on the Sherpa T was done with a chunk of Coke can and PC7 (similar to JB) back in 71, still holding.

I've had good luck using JB weld in the past
