    R3 Standard (2300) Radiator Insert (overlay)

    As usual, the price is commensurate with the materials. I realized a substantial reduction is materials cost due to a reduction in the overall metals market. I was able to procure Carpenter Technologies Number 8 mirrir polished stainless sheet at a substantial reduction in cost...

  5. Leaking Radiator

    Greetings to all, This is my first post and sadly it is to ask if anyone has removed the radiator from an R3, and if so, is it a difficult proposition. It doesn't look like it would be hanging out there all by itself but I thought I would ask first before I tackled it. Had a very low speed...

    Polished Stainless Radiator Inserts

    I'll fess up, I went and put a Touring Insert on Flea-Bay this afternoon. I have a number of Radiator Inserts that have minor blemishes on them, blemishes that won't show up when the insert is installed on the bike but blemishes nonetheless. I'm not going to offer them on the website because...

    Thinkin of painting the radiator sides...

    Guys, I'm thinking that the radiator sides and top pieces are plastic chrome... Anyone see any problems with scratching them with fine paper and spraying them flat black? I see no reason to spend good money to buy new black ones when a few coats will do the job. They don't seem to get hot=I...

    Due to many requests, I'm bringing back the R3Classic Radiator Inserts in Polished, Number 8, domestic (Carpenter Technologies) Stainless Steel. I had a problem with a high rejection rate because of the way the 'Classic' script is positioned on the insert but after careful re-plotting of the...

    Radiator shrouds and air flow

    Just installed a 25 inch clearview windshield with recurve but no air vent and it significantly reduced turbulent flow compared to the Roadster screen but it wasn't as good as I had expected. I have the lowers too. Looking at the radiator shroud I wondered if all that junk might be creating...
  12. Painting the radiator and bearclaw

    I have seen a few photos of this done and it is the look i want until I can justify fitting a slimmer radiator. The question is how do you paint chrome? The radiator shrouds are plastic and the bearclaw metal. I imagine the grill would be best powder coated. Thanks

  17. Radiator Fan...

    .... keeps on turning, long after the engine has been shut off:eek:. Watched the thing go on regardless for over 15 minutes. By then, the engine was almost cold. Only way to stop it is to disconnect the battery. This is happening to a friend's Rocket, every time the engine is switched off. Any...

    The new radiator look

    You guys didn't say much on my post about my vents when I posted them unfinshised, I think no one could visualize them finished. So here's some pictures with the finished product.
