LTR Radiator brace

[rupecopp]

I brought a set of braces from go fasters and the brace seems about 10mm to long. My radiator seems a bit bent in places, but not too bad. should I bend the rad/tabs to fit, or cut down the brace/post.

Bike is a 02 ec200

Thanks

If the brace is fully threaded in to the tab on the frame and the other end sticks out past the grommet in the rad more than a couple mm the rad is bent. It doesn't matter though, as the shroud now mounts to the brace not the rad.

Oh, I thought the brace had a washer before the grommit. If not it should be fine.

I suggest you put some anti-sieze on the threads, don't ask me how I know.
