R1250RT Left side valve cover

Post by Glenn »

How much clearance is there inside the front of the valve cover to the shift cam mech? As a result of being knocked off the bike it looks like there is a part of the cover that has been pushed in by the light bracket on the crash bar.

Ouch. Don't know about clearance to the cams, but if the cover is indeed caved in I would not run the engine without replacing it.
