I had a lower one of Rick's, it really was the business. If you have a look through 'my bikes' section you should find a pic. :grin:
*Just checked and there's not a pic there?! I'll try and find one.

Marcus - I've seen about 2 sets fitted to bikes and handled a set when at Rick's a while back. Really nice bit of kit.

I have an upper and a lower fitted to mine and as there is a Micron exhaust in the way there is no cooling fan but I have never had any issues with overheating in normal road usage. Excellent bits of kit and well worth the money.

I have some Rick O rads

They are lovely bits of Kit.

Bigger for better cooling than the oe Honda ones, fit really well, and are good on the road as well as the track

I'd definately recommend getting some............ if you can afford it :o
