Radiators

Somewhere on the forum is a thread about radiators but I'll be damned if I can find it. Any leads would be appreciated.

viewtopic.php?f=22&t=29312 ??

Unfortunately, then you need to see the last page of this one: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=33719

I ended up buying off a well known auction site, from China. It seems OK so far except that I had to do a little work to space it away from the exhausts.

I had these 32 mm radiators made for my NC35 here in Thailand. I've been running them on both my bikes for over a year now and they've performed very well indeed, some friends have also been testing them on their track bikes with good results.

I'm working on developing and producing road and track upper and lower radiators specific for both the NC30 and NC35. A curved 23 mm (same as OEM) road upper for each model, a straight 32 mm track upper for each model and 32 mm lower radiators both with and without fan and thermo switch mounts.

When these become available I'll post in the for sale section.

I can't make a final decision on the cost yet, the odd-size 18 mm o.d. link pipes have to be machined and I'm still looking for the best / most cost-effective way to do this. That said the retail cost will be somewhere between the Chinese versions and the radiators RO is selling, probably just over USD 300 each (not a pair).

The 23 mm street uppers will be curved same as OEM which I know is something some of the members here have been after, coupled with a 32 mm lower this should give a performance increase over OEM (and over the Chinese versions). Finish will either be bare aluminium same as the ones shown, or a brushed finish.

I've seen the radiators, both the curved stock and the straight track variants look like tip top parts from up close.
