Hi Pookie,

Roll on getting the paintwork done [-o<

Mission impossible.....

Bernie dont get despondant the rad sits behind the belly pan. No one , even you can see it. Just crack on and get it built !

Hi, bernie, u should think about dumping the standard rad, and run with the yzf rad, as u are runing with the 300 topend , that,s what am going to be using.

Using a non standard radiator does defeat the objective of a full restoration.

Hi Bernie,
You have come along way,why not get it refurbished by the experts?I know it won't be cheap,but at least it will be in keeping with the rest of the bike.After all you have managed to do most of the work yourself.I take my hat off to you for your dedication.Your bike will look immaculate once complete and something to be proud of after all your hard work.

Hi Rich,
The standard rad is a sad looking little thing, and I don't think a couple of out of sight improvemnts are going to spoil it.

Big shiny rad ordered


Cheers
Bernie

Something shiny arrived in the post

looking pucker there Bernie does the body work fi ok cheers =D> =D> =D>

Hi Wayne,
It is shorter than the standard unit, so I should be able to mount it higher to avoid contact with the fairing.
That will get looked at when I next get home. (and a polish)
Cheers
Bernie

Bernie where did you buy the radiator, in england or in china?



cheers Jarno

Hi Jarno,

In England (I think they are also available from China on ebay)

Cheers,
Bernie

Hi Bernie,

ok but if i transport it from china the customs wil hold up there hand

is the radiator on fleebay?

cheers Jarno

It's the parts of the fairing that go back towards the radiator that foul on mine Bernie. The ends of the fairing catch right on the finned part of the rad. For mine to clear I would have to move the rad back by about 5-10mm towards the rear of the bike.

Yours may well be different though when you fit your fairing.
