Alternator cover??

Ok so a few of you know that i need a new Crank Case cover for my bike. So that was on my christmas list. My dad went and ordered it from "Open Road Honda" our local honda dealer ship. I noticed when i got the recipt (since it wasnt here for christmas) that it says "Alternator Cover" when im positive my dad asked for a Crank Case cover cause thats what it said on my list.

They call me this morning and confirmed that my order is in and im goin to go pick it up in alittle bit. But my question is When the hell is a Crank Case cover the same as an Alternator cover???? Cause the guy that works at the dealership said that it was an Alt cover. I said i needed a CC cover and he asked "is it round and on the left side of the bike" i said yes and he said yeah thats what we got for you.

Im confused as hell because an Alternator has nothing to do with my cracked crank case. Is my local dealership just retarded or whats goin on?

Your alternator or stator as there called on motorcycles is on the left side of the crank. So both terms are correct. In michigan we call them stator covers.
