I see. Not running a thermostat. Brave lol.
Well what are the odds of this... one turned up only 10mins away from me so I've bought it and hopefully this problem will be sorted. Will keep the broken one in case I can have it repaired.

Welli fucked up. Haha
Seems I bought a h2 rad? Looks the same but no cap and thermostat pipe is in different place.

Re: Zxr 750 radiator options.

Sorry didn't explain that. My rad seems to touch the headers slightly.
Makes a slightly annoying noise. Haha.

Zxr 750 radiator options.UPDATED - PLEASE HELP ME.. AGAIN

Hi all.
My j1 has had a stone through the rad.
Are there any different rads that I can use?
Namely smaller ones. I know you can get r1 expansion bottles to replace the under seat unit? Anyone remember what year?
But are there any small radiators?
Appreciate any help!
Cheers

Re: HELP - zxr750 not firing - i miss her!!

hi dude
sorry for the slow reply....
yeah, long story but the carbs aren't healthy, but i ended up paying a garage quite a bit to sort her out.
was a big job fine tuning the carbs, took the guy a good while to do - lots of experience not me being a chimp :D
carbs are so worn that they are nowhere ...
