I used a 400 rad on mine and it was fine. They're pretty much the same size if you look at them side by side, except the 400 doesn't have the oil cooler pipes (unless you've got an SP or a 4DX). I blanked the oil cooler lines off on my 600 engine.

Some have been able to use the standard right side hose turned around, but that didn't work for me so I made up a hose using standard 3TJ stuff I had lying around and some 7/8" handlebar tube ;)
