That broken thing you see is the tab used to secure the the yellow wires with a zip tie so they can't catch in the rotor.

My bike has this tab attached to the alternator stator under one coil, very close to the rotor.

If the tab breaks off, it could get between the rotor & stator, and damage both.

I think you could throw the broken piece away and secure the leads with a small p-clip or clamp under one of the screws which hold the stator down.

This might be the cause of Dimo's problem http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19415&hl=

And guess what? I touched that tab on my bike, and found it broken off too! I had to add a p-clip.

See picture of a P-Clip securing the wiring loom away from the rotor.

Hi 

 

The wire fixing breaking off is very usual. I use to drill a small hole in the aluminium ring to fix the wire properly with a cable tie.
