I sure wouldn't trust epoxy for the stop that prevents over-rotation of the steering head. Seems like that has to take pretty substantial, and constant stress when the bike is parked on its sidestand. I wouldn't want to come back and find my bike laying on it's side with cosmetic damage, or have it suddenly pitch over when I'm fueling the tank. Doesn't over-rotation of the head cause damage to cables and wiring?
I'd think I'd weld or braze, with my trusty Oxy-acetylene rig, or park religiously using only the bike's centerstand.
The feature that key-locks the steering for security purposes, I'd be less concerned about. I'd toss that in my parts box, and deal with it someday.
RE's tear down pretty fast and easy, in my opinion. You didn't say what model or year you have. Maybe you want post or link to a picture or two of the afflicted feature?
