Fierce Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 I bought one because I was constantly having issues with overheating on long long dune rides, even with Engine Ice, billet impeller and a coolhead. On the other hand my friend's, has never had a problem with a stock rad on the same rides. I haven't had any problems since putting a Boss rad on. I can't comment on that brand because I don't know. I bought mine from Wildcard. In my case, was it worth it? Definitely! Would it be worth it if I wasn't having problems, probably not. Quote

Burt Reynolds Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 I have never had heat issues with any of my bikes,but the one with the aftermarket radiator doesnt overheat either lol! Quote
madjimmax Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Chances are if your running hot it could be a jetting issue. A stock shee rad should cool just fine even with mods, but to be honest I run a Toomey oversized because of the deal I got on it. Quote
jonvia Posted April 8, 2011 Author Report Posted April 8, 2011 i run an oversized one just because they look better than stock. i got my from a dealer in florida, i think they are the china ones but it works great so far. i have a stock rad that is in good condition for $15 shipped. yeah thats the same exact one i want. the ones from florida. i would but i want the oversize lol. plus it looks better lol. my plugs are running rich, but i do not know jetting... :/ where should i start? its not as responsive as it used to be lol.

andrew3160 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 I had an issue with my boss spitting coolant out the overflow. I would not suggest using the cap it came with. Quote
