Default i got my koyo radiator installed

i've never seen a fluidyne radiator but people tell me the koyo radiator is much thicker than the fluidyne. the fitment wasn't too great with the drain **** .. i had to grind a little of the frame to clear it... but all in all i'm happy.. just barely fit.. cheaper than fluidyne to say the least

Uhhh.. better cooling.

Old radiators tend to have a build up of calcium and gum that restrict flow. They also end up with bent fins over time decreasing cooling ability.
