jonny500:
by the core size do you mean the veins running up and down
kaw rider:
yes, i would guess the core is around 1-1 1/4" thick.
jonny500:
kaw rider, the new rad is w=4 1/4", h=8 5/8", d=1 5/8" . the stock 250 rad is w=4 1/4" h=8 5/8" w=1 1/4".
i have some stock 500 rads i can measure but im sure you have some too
i think the new ones are more than upto the job, do you think the will make the motor run too cool?, also the rad system on the new bike will be in parallel compared to series on the the stock 500, how do you think that will effect it.
kaw rider:
thats around 72 sq.in. Get them up around 140 sq.in and 2" core and you will be good on a hot day. If you don't ride wide open all the time then you will be safe. For the price you cant go wrong.
jonny500:
is that 140sq" on each rad or left and right together
