The fix is simple. You van buy an insert from any bearing shop for mere dollars, that has same ID as shaft, then bore the cover to fit. Like new but better.

Think I bought spares when I did my mates if you can't find. Heck I made a jig to do the drilling. Wonder where that is?
Thanks F5. I understand the previous owner had the jetting changed by Dirt Action Services down here in Christchurch. Not sure what these changes entailed though.

I will check out the sidecover at the bendix too. Ill report back on what I find. The bike only has 100 hours on it, and the previous owner removed the electric start systems for at least some of that time, so hopefully no issues with it at the moment.
