Default Re: My off

what do people think of this radiator, seems like they are pretty hard to get hold off, its looks a mess but the seller claims its in full working condition.

if anyone else knows how to get a rad then let me know, ive pretty much got everything I need sourced except for one of these.

Sure your rad can't be repaired?

Looks very dirty, mainly crud thrown off front wheel. May clean up OK. If the seller claims it is sound and leak free, then that gives you the contractual right to reject it if it turns out not to be.

Is it worth a trip to the breakers to see it in person? Or make a cheeky low offer?

I got a new front fender for my bike when I did the gsxr conversion, it needed painting. I took it to a local paintshop they did a good job for me and I need to go back with my petrol tank because I manged to drop my bike when on the paddock stand and dented it . As your buying my old front fender I could ask them for a price for you and get it done at the same time, then send to you painted if you want? I can show you photos of the work they did if you need. Let me know what you think.

Hope that would be of some help to you.

Cheers for the offer, Ive got so much stuff to get painted and sv_rory has made a good offer so I think im going to stick with getting it all done with him, that way I can be pretty sure the colour will all be the same.
