i wasn't aware anyone made a replacement engine case out of magnesium.  it can be done, the volkswagen bug (old) was magnesium -- the pre-70s version had too much magnesium and was prone to igniting too, they changed it to add more aluminium.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

side covers is what he's looking for me thinks...


powdercoat the case sides if you get magnesium so there's a thicker paint buffer on them.
