Default Clutch cover

My clutch cover took a solid hit from the brake pedal yesterday. Would you:
#1-replace it
#2 - put some epoxy on it
#3- just runs it, and not worry until it leaks
#4- or ?

JB Weld/Epoxy...scuff it up with some coarse grit sand paper first. You can set a fender washer, and then the jb weld/epoxy to add durability. If it doesn't hold up, you are out the money for the epoxy and the washer...not gonna break the bank.

I have a jb weld trail fix on my husaberg ignition cover that has lasted several years.

If you end up buying a replacement, it seems the older style covers may be more durable. Should fit up same same.

Add some JB Weld/epoxy as insurance and keep riding.

Yes , I'm going to epoxy the offending area of the cover. Would love to just get a new 2017 instead, but not in the cards currently.
I just picked up a new Thruxton-R road bike.
