'99 ZX-9 Radiator issues

Post by iKe »

Hi guys,

had some cooling issues with my 9 lately, I've been through and replaced thermostat, water pump and check all the hoses (the cheaper options as I had a bunch of spares) but my fears have been confirmed, the Rad has a tonne of broken or closed off fins (almost a third of the total fins). Been quoted a grand by canberra motorcycle centre for a new one from japan.

Don't suppose somebody here has one in decent condition they want to part with? If not, I was planning to take it to NATRAD or somewhere similar to talk about re-coring.

any advice would be apreciated!

cheers,
Ike

A good mate will bail you out of jail, a true mate will be sitting in the cell next to you saying "Damn, we fucked up!!!"
