Hi Everyone,

Just joined in the hope someone can help me out. I am sorting out a NC30 VFR400 for a lad I know and am on the hunt for a good second hand lower rad. The one in this bike is pretty grotty. The fins are either blocked or corroded away and the mounts have made bids for freedom. I am beginning to think it could be a forlorn search looking on Ebay etc. The ones on there are pretty duff as well. So any help pointers advice etc etc would be appreciated.

Look forward to hearing from you all.

Generally, good condition lower rads are rare as hens' teeth. You might be better off either buying a new one, or getting the existing one re-conditioned.

There are new pattern sets available on ebay.

Just make sure the lower rad has the tabs to mount the fan if it's going on a roadbike.
