Where does the factory case splitting tool mount?

Case is officially unsplit!

Woo Hoo! ANd the stator is back on. It went much better the second time (doesn't it always ;) ).

The crank was not centered at first, so I heated up the cases a bit, and whacked it with a hammer through a piece of scrap oak. Popped it right into place.

The aftermarket (bearing shop provided) seal didn't work the best, it has a compound lip that stuck out and had to be tucked back in. Not recommended, but I think I was able to do it without nicking anything.

Just as a followup, all the stuff I did in this thread has held up great! I'm not racing the bike or anything, but it's done 5 or 6 full days of trail riding since the rebuild, and countless heat cycles and runs up and down the street while putzing with jetting.

FWIW.
