I have an unusable primary cover that has a broken ball ramp shoulder. Obiewan also had one break and he repaired it. Here is a thread he did on his repair with very good photos:

His actual repair looks to be better than new since he used a steel insert and screws to hold the insert in.

When mine failed it was very difficult to find a new one, and it cost almost $300. My Uly was down for over a month during peak riding season.

Is there anyone that is doing repairs on these primary covers that might be interested in fixing my broken one for a reasonable price?

I’m concerned if mine fails again my Uly will be down for an unreasonable amount of time while searching for a replacement. Having a spare on hand at home would give me a lot of peace of mind.

Thanks

I don't know if this is allowed, but there's a used motorcycle salvage yard by me that I've used with good luck.

Thanks Thumper, but they show no XB primary cover on their website. Looks like a cool place.

Here is a link that works:
