Radiator Fins need LOVE Too !!!

<< < (2/2)

FuriouSly:
Best way to not bang your rad when taking off the pipe is to take off the top anti-vibe bracket with the pipe.  Generally the twisting of the pipe binds it up and then when pulling it off... bam!  Ding in the rad.

The finning tool is a good idea but doesn't work on the little rows of fins on most motorcycles.  Time, patience, and a nice set of wide bladed tweezers are the ticket.  Don't forget to add some water wetter to the rad fluid when rehydrating the beast.

Be cool....  hehe

I have had very good luck with Engine Ice.

KXcam22:
My gnarly fits a bit tight so I end up pivoting the rad out of the way so I don't squash the fins. Cam.
