Rick O bits

Post by challymo »

Got some bits from Rick the other week (thanks) and have found that the lower rad lower most fixing wont attach with the fan in place as it hits the oil filter. Can I run these without it? and as for the rvf fork conversion, got it all ready to go but cant get the top nut of the vfr yokes, does anyone know if this is a 40 or 41mm socket?

You mean you bought a Rick O lower radiator? It fits 100% percectly with no interference, I can tell you this as I have one too. As for the VFR top yoke, it's 41mm.

How much were the rads mate? And is there a comprehensive listing of the parts Rick sells w/prices anywhere?

Yeh the bottom radiator, it wont quite reach the connecting arm on the bottom rad. To be honest ill probably just make a slightly longer one as the difference is about 4-5mm. The rads were £520. If you PM me your e-mail address i'll send the list too you.

Are you using a standard dimension oil filter?

I run those rads on my own NC and the bottom one clears everything fine with the stock fan & oil filter fitted.

I can supply a shorter oil filter if you need one, but you shouldn`t...!
