So I just took my bike apart and I have exactly the same problem!! Very Sad. So is your bike still holding up with the pin drilled into the case - I think that will be the way to go - I have to do something and a whole new case is too much $$$. Do you think you could dril the hole into the old cover and it still hold? looks like it might be too thin - How deep was the hole on the cover side? THANKS for you posts - at least I have an idea of what I have ahead of me.
