Radguard fitting - Buzz - 27-01-2015
RE: Radguard fitting - ohzone - 28-01-2015
Hi Buzz I just fitted one to a friends Gen2 and it just fitted in behind the panels with no material to be removed either from the bike or the two guards
RE: Radguard fitting - Shordy - 28-01-2015
I'm thinking of installing one to my Gen 2 as they certainly are a rock scoop.
Can they be fitted without removing the fairings?
RE: Radguard fitting - Buzz - 28-01-2015
No i had to undo both radiators, to get it on. Its a struggle but fits quite fast and tight.
I took everything off, makes more room and easier, besides my bike needed a service so it was convenient. Also some vaso to the four hook points makes it easier for future removal.

Mmmm, I'll start putting a few dollars aside for a replacement radiator. It sounds easier, not that I'm lazy or anything...

Take it from me fit a rad guard the other option is/was limp it home for 150k's with the motor heating up at every stop and green shit all over the place.

I notice virtually no manufacturer does and such a cheap thing to fit as standard.
RE: Radguard fitting - mozzie26 - 28-01-2015
Rad guard should be the first mod you do to your bike. I know from experience!
Go to window/glass shop get some stainless crimsafe mesh offcuts $10. Some Pinchweld trim from Clark Rubber $15. Some brass eyelets from Spotlight $5 and 7 cable ties and make your own rad guards.

I made my own but used ally mesh may do the same as you did mozzie...thanks for the tips.
RE: Radguard fitting - mozzie26 - 29-01-2015
The crimsafe mesh is like the Rated R Warp Speed gaurd. I think this would give the best protection out of all the gaurds I have seen on the market.
I have also made an aluminum mesh gaurd for my track bike(gsxr750) to keep the weight down.
Here's the one's I made for the Gen1.
Here is a pis of the one on the GSXR750.

I fitted the Rated R set without removing anything, it was a bit fiddly!
