[QUOTE="ogrilp400, post: 38983, member: 88"] This is another problem area on a Vincent HRD. Even with the standard Miller generator, let alone an adaptation, there is usually much fettling to be done here. As with Keith above I too seal this area as I also have had copious amounts of oil exit here. Put the generator in place hard up against the drive housing. Fit the slinger and drive sprocket. If the sprocket is too far to the left then you can slide the generator away to line it up. If the sprocket is too far to the right then you will have to machine up adapters or spacers to centralise the sprocket in the center of the middle run of the chain. Not rocket science. Phelps.
