Greetings,
I have a ZX9 with a standard radiator metal mesh radiator guard that seems to develop a resonance and with it an annoying noise.
Just wondering if anyone has noticed this with radiator guards and if there is a fix?
Regards,
JB

Alteratively wrap some pvc tape around the edges in several spots to stop the vibration transfering too or from the radiator.
HTH.

- ZX9R. They can be installed on the bike, I just had to replace the radiator anyway.

JB,
Dave #3 ('03 ZX9) and myself ('06 ZX6) both have Brett's radiator guards on our bikes, so you can have a bit of a nosey at them on Sunday if you'd like to

Thanks Cath,
I am planning on dragging myself out of the cot for the 8.15 meet up at Kariong and down a coffee at PITS.
To be honest I am not entirely sure whether the resonance rattle thing is the guard or those wire guards twined around the brake lines, drives me crazy.
I took a look at the radguard site, I like the chrome mesh, must be the hog in me.
Regards,
John
