Well, when i'm finished with this piece of chewing gum, I might stick that on. Xivilia said it should hold.

And you can also use the tin foil from wrigglys to camoflage the chewing gum weld, to retain your factory finish. So i'm told.

If you use a cold flame, you can use the welding pack from eBay to fix the cover while on the bike without risking setting fire to the oil! :-)
