I think honda briton used a third rad and when tony scott tuned the bikes in the early ninties i had some pics somewhere they used to drill the front of the fairing full of holes.

thats a lot of crap, showa ( the suspension people ?) doing a rad for a 400 race bike . na don't think so , and HRC never listed a 3rd rad, bigger, wider, deeper ones yes but not 3 of them

i guess it's someones homebrew idea of getting heat down on the bikes. maybe it works, maybe it doesn't but i don't think it's worth £99.
It's not having what you want but wanting what you've got....Loud ,Proud and Modified ....

Some Honda OEM radiators used to made by 'Showa' but I'm sure it's a different company to the suspension people.

A quick google search brings up this.

I think it's more likely to be an oil cooler.
