Drive Side Cover Kit

The reason im replacing is this part seems poorly designed ? As it is way too easy to split out the corners where studs go ?..... its the way the hole tapers and the weak plastc compound cracks when studs are tightened even moderately . My bike is a one year old powerplay c70 altitude which i recently got 2nd hand with only 800 kms on the clock . It rides really well but there is a liud grating noise coming from front if drive train when ynder load ?..... and some charging issues (battery wont charge) i am taking it to RM service tech to attempt to resolve these issues . I will keep you posted thanks for the opportunity to provide feedback .....

I get the third cover now :-) two times it was split by a mechanic at the dealer...they just do not keep in mind to only use 2 NM. So honestly, should be redesigned. No need to change the mould which would be expensive, just change the material. Add TPE to the compound and some reinforcement, done. Ask your taiwanese suppliers, they can fix it for a dollar max. This part has a purchase value of 3 bucks max.

This is a major over sight by engineering. As this cover needs to come off and in all the time it needs to be more robust. A compression latch or flat washer head style screw would be much better than the taper head screw design. I was warned to be gentle with it and still broke it very easily.

Looks good but breaks easily as RM knows. Could use three rubber washers to help absorb shock. I purchased some from a hardware store. I never over tighten but the cover still seem to crack.

Looks like I’m a another victim of the cover splitting at the top bolt. Ordering up a replacement 🤷‍♂️ my fault I guess I shouldn’t have crashed and laid it over on its right side. Honestly didn’t even know it was broken until I was cleaning the bike up and saw the broken chunks of plastic fall out the motor side.
