MINE WAS BRIGHT AND SHINEY, CAN STILL TELL AFTER A YEAR THE DIFFERENCE IN COLOUR THAT ITS BEEN REPLACED. ITS AT HOME WILL CHECK TONIGHT ABOUT THE GRINDING MARKS TO SEE IF THERE ARE ANY ON MINE
The cover does not come with any finish coating over the bare aluminum. The grinding marks are where the vents and sprues were ground off after the part came out of the casting mold. That one looks exactly like the one I bought a few months ago. The area that were machined for bearings and such are perfectly new. You should be all set with that cover.I ordered the updated (in 2009) crankcase cover to address the stator cooling problem on my 2008 Grizzly 700 EPS.
The part looks refurbished to me, but I'm not sure. I just assumed there would be SOME type of finish over the bare aluminum.
Would others who have replaced their crankcase covers please take a look and comment?
Thanks!!
Dave
