In Line Cooler

(1/4) > >>

stock500:
Has anyone ever used those little aluminum in line coolers?  If they are worth the 20 bucks I would like my bike to run cooler.  I ride some tight trails that never open up to get air through the radiator, so if they help enough to make a difference it would be nice to know.

Contact Neal Holt @ Fluidyne. He might be able to build a set for the K5. If they don't already.

I can get them for 20 bucks each on rockymountainatvmc.com if they are worth it.  I don't know if it really makes the motor cool enough to make a difference.

I put a set of those on my 04 kfx250. They are known for overheating. They did nothing for me. I had the inline gauge and it didn't change my running temps. Had to upgrade to the 05 radiators.

It may be more effective to build an overflow bottle, upgrade the coolant and put on a higher pressure cap.  I found my K5 only got really hot when I was slipping the clutch.  I never got around to upgrading the cap. Cam.
