Although it has not been leaking my lower radiator is very badly corroded and dented so needs replacing. I found this one on ebay. It seems very cheap so I am a bit sceptical. Has any one tried it or no of another not too expensive source?

The fan bracket is also totally corroded but hopefully I can do without a fan, might just have to pull over if it gets too hot in traffic.

you can get a chinese one for 100 quid or so...

Hi mate, if you are on the VFR pages on Facebook search for a Scott Jelleyman as he has contact from China who have reworked their radiators so that they actually fit. He gets them at a great price too so well worth looking into (ill be getting both top and bottom rads from him soon).

I'm here £50 delivered for lower rad

Scott how much for upper and lower rad!

I bought a Set of Winner Racing Rads and they are CRAP! Had huge fitment issues with them. In dispute about them now,......

But, just bought a set of these on ebay

Will report how they fit like. They sell the Lower Rad for £40.

Well I was tempted and somebody needed to see what they send. Delivery will be circa "Thu. 14 Apr. and Mon. 9th"
Ill let you know how it goes and if its as advertised which I susspect it won be

Well so far so good, the radiator has turned up (Ahead of schedule) and "looks" to be ok.

Now to see if it fits and the temp gauge screws in etc....

watch this space...................................

i boguht a cbr250 one. the fan brakcets needed re-drilling to line up properly as did the mounting brackets but the thermoswitch boss for the fan was correct so no trouble with that. didnt leak either and seemed to cool just as good as the original before it died

Well it's official. It fits, it's aluminium. It's black. It's within tolerance for the radiator and it cools just fine. It basically fitted without any felttling [emoji3].

It even arrived well ahead of time.

£35 complete with postage from China.

It's gets the Stuart recommend.
