Aftermarket Radiators.......Advice please.....

[whentzsruled]

Hi everyone.
I`ve searched on the forum for advice on aftermarket Aluminium radiators but without any luck.
I`m thinking of buying a pair from a "well known" internet auction site but would like to know
from anyone where/who I should be looking at to get the best ones.
They are for my road going NC35.........Any/all help much appreciated........Thanks, Paul.

Have a look at my nc30 build thread and avoid those ones, I've no other first hand experience of any decent ones I'm afraid.

2 choices, cheap or expensive. There is a quality difference but depends on your wants and budget. Rick oliver does some expensive kit and a member on here scottjell does the best of the cheaper ones.

Also Gavin at Jap4 can supply them..bloody pricey though but I guess you get what you pay for.

Mine were the cheap chinese (GPI Club) ones and luckilly fitted without modification or drama.. My O/E ones were toast so I found the bike ran a touch cooler with these items. As suggested - pricier ones will almost certainly fit better and perform better but I guess it's what suits your budget..

I also got the GPI ones for £110 with hoses for road use. No problems so far.

Cant say for NC35 but I bought a chinesse one £40 for my NC23. Holes for the fan neede slotting but otherwis fit was good. No issues with it. Cooling is good.
