Re: Another magneto seal thread

You win the prize for the most magdyno platform wear for 2025! What you have is very bad. As Ian stated the magdyno and platform should both be perfectly flat. This is a very common problem and I expect to see it anytime I work on a B or M series. Check the mounting strap anytime you ride the bike. They do come loose.

I fix the problem by milling the platform flat and add a aluminum plate to bring the height back up. If really bad, I sometimes have to weld it.

When the magdyno is this bad, I usually look for a better magdyno body instead of fixing the old one.

You are going to have to visit a machine shop and possibly a welder to fix this problem.


If you have not taken the magdyno apart, I would do it. When the magdyno sinks down in to the platform it can take away the gear clearance and put a side load on the bearings and destroy the insulating cups.
