hey guys,
i was pulling my motor apart after determining i needed to replace all the lower end seals on my 85 kdx. As soon as i pulled the flywheel i noticed that one of the magnets had broken of, and borken in half. i have no clue how this happened, but it would be a 450 dollar part to replace and the bike is only worth 5 in good shape. i was told by a few people that i could jsut epoxy the magnet back together and put it back on the flywheel. would this work ? obviously the balance would have to be asjusted but woudl the epoxy be strong enough to handle the forces on the magnets? thanks for any help
