NC31 1992 radiator replacement with NC39 radiator

Post by Japchap » Mon Oct 26, 2015 11:40 am

Hey again, the radiator is also a part which I would like to change...

If the NC39 rad. is able to be bolted on and connected to all the hoses etc, is the NC31 fan-holder also a direct strap-on??? ...meaning that it is basically the same part with same dimensions etc.

(or even the CBR250RR or other 250cc bike).


cheers


Arthur

Why do you want to change the radiator, I've got a cheap Chinese pattern one on my NC31 and it fitted fine and has lasted 3000 miles so far.

I'm looking to replace my rad in the near future. Due to external corrosion and degradation of the cooling fins. I have been looking at the Chinese alternative.
can you let me know how you go. Cheers.

I bought a cheap chinese radiator and it although it fits the bike it's too large to take the plastic surround. I still have it, yours for a tenner plus the postage and I'll be pleased to see it go.
