Default 2012 300 radiator

Are there any good aftermarket radiators , that are on eBay, etc? Going over my bike today, my left radiator is not looking good. I'm going to run it for now, but will replace soon.

What's wrong with it? Does it leak? All I see are a few fins pushed flat by debris etc. The rads can be bent quite a bit before they leak. These bikes don't run hot and the stock rads have good cooling performance.

Yeah I wouldn't stress it. My radiators have been mangled, pushed pulled and stretched back, and mangled again and I haven't had a leak yet.

That rad looks to be in good shape...no need to replace it unless you have a leak...if you are OCD and worried about the bent fins, get out the needle nose pliers and straighten things up.

That's good to hear about the durability. I don't even know when I mashed it. It doesn't leak, so I will just keep an eye on it.
Some of the cooling find were ripped from the cooling core, so I was initially worried. After looking at it more, I'm sure it could be soldered. If it starts to leak someday.
