Re: Chinese rads: anyone tried them?
Received my rads. Packaging was top class!
Will wait until the warmer and drier weather rather that filling these rads with the scum and shite off the roads.
They do look well made and are nice and light but don't know how they compare to OEM

Cheers. That do fit well after a little 'adjustment'.
Well done Geoff for sorting them out.

Has everyone had to modify the bracket?

Re: Chinese rads: anyone tried them?
Nope, I just put the bolt in from the left (as you stand in front of the rad) instead of from the right if that makes sense? Fitted a treat.

Re: Chinese rads: anyone tried them?
The upper bracket of the lower rad (the little stud type one) needed a little 'adjustment' and also the near side bracket of the upper rad just needed bending into place. All ok and alloy was soft enough no real hardship.alexwitham wrote:Has everyone had to modify the bracket?

a tiny bit of fiddling, and some thinking time and they went in fine.

Re: Chinese rads: anyone tried them?
Eh, seriously considering a set of these. Mine have seen better days, and it gets viciously hot here during the summer time.
Any left?

Re: Chinese rads: anyone tried them?
I see your located in HKG, why not source it direct from China into HKG (import duties free, right?). It should save on the costs for int. shipping.oki_boy wrote:Eh, seriously considering a set of these. Mine have seen better days, and it gets viciously hot here during the summer time.

PS: Geoff, above has nothing to do with your superb and great effort to get these rads, you're doing a great job on here
