Title: Radiator
Post by: Foxx4Beaver on January 11, 2015, 05:48:43 AM

anyone know this guy in the video?....or what radiator he's running, or a place he may have had it hand made specifically to fit?

it's hard to get a good look at it in the video, but it looks similar to this one...although the one in the video "appears" to be much bigger...

What's up with that box on the swingarm?  It's only in the first two pics.

that's the "catch-can"...where all your extra fluids get routed to...so they don't dump out on the pavement in front of your rear tire and cause you to crash and die, or get hurt :-o
plus it's mandatory in SM racing.
 
here's a catch-can thread...
