Rad & Fab

Cleaned and sprayed the radiator which was in pretty good condition. just a lot of corrosion. So the cooling system is ready to go all the pipes and expansion tank are connected up.

























The original rear footrest hangers also included the exhaust hanger on the left hand side. I am not refitting these so instead I fabricated a hanger bracket for the exhaust  from an aluminium off cut which is 3mm thick and very inexpensive and easy to polish!

    I think this is what you need if you've not already sorted it.
