NC35 Radiator Help

Post by Mavirick » Tue Aug 01, 2017 9:53 am

Hi All

I urgently need help Please

I need a larger replacement radiator for the NC35 the weather here in South Africa, where I live it gets very hot and the standard Radiators is not cooling enough and as we all know the V4 likes running hot already.

I have replaced both a few years ago and it made a small difference but not happy, then I bought thicker core Radiators from China (Very big mistake 2 days wasted fitting) made a small difference but not enough.

I want to do a single large radiator conversion but i need help choosing a Donor bike that is not going to break the bank or the take me weeks to modify.

Please I really need this ASAP

thanx in advance

Kind regards
MAV

If rads dont make a difference would check pump is intact and stat fully opening as well as fan operating as said they do run hot but theres others in warm climes that dont have issues with the cooling system if all in order.

You could fit a manual fan switch that might help or if you do a search theres an alternative plumbing layout for the cooling system with the flow pipes on the rads im sure ive seen somewere.
