I am finishing installation of a new ES stator. I went to put the outer fancy cover on and can't decide what the orientation of the "special washer" that goes over the end of the crank should be. It doesn't appear to matter but I also know what happens when I assume. The manual and parts catalog don't really show it either.
Should the raised shoulder be in (towards motor) or out?
Another question: Do you guys use sealer on the gaskets for this machine? With OEM gaskets its not necessary on my other bike.
Also, as a heads up to anyone looking at having to do this. I have now put one of these electrosport stators in my Vmax and my Suzuki GS. Both had the same issue, the placement of the rubber part on the wires is off and must be adjusted by pulling it down the wires before installing. After moving the piece I recovered the now longer leads with a longer piece of heat sheathing.
