Re: Can an alternative bike radiator fit?
your welcome! actually it didnt show the mod for some reason here I upload again for ya !
PS I saw that they sell VFR radiators in two pieces as Left and Right. I might have remembered the VFR part wrong so we need an Expert to identify my rad

- pay attention to the cut out original bracket hole on the left of the mounting bolt. A new hole was drilled on the radiator to push it closer to the block so it wont hit the front fender. it works good so far just needs some TLC

Sorry for bumping up the old thread but I got some leaks on my radiator
and I'm looking for replacement.
The radiator on pics is from Suzuki SV 650 model year 99

Re: Can an alternative bike radiator fit?
Just a thought. As most sports bikes have curved rads (albeit concave when looking from the front) would it not be just a matter of going to a large breakers like D&K spares and find one with similar dimensions that could be fitted 'backwards? There may even be one with similar bracketry, but if not, I expect someone could weld/braze new brackets on. Just a thought

Ducati Monster S4R has massive convex (like a sports bike) rad, but it looks ok
