b33rs Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 These Aluminum Radiators that you see on ebay and around, when they say oversize does that mean that it will still fit in stock plastics or do changes need to be made? thx :beer: Quote
wesw Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 means they are 2x as thick they fit under stock plastic yes probably one of the smartest things to buy for a shee if you ride a lot and dune, i got a toomey one. in the winter i have to put a winter front on it so the bike will get to a decent temp.

LOL, damn they work that good? Quote
wesw Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 stock rad at the dune would boil over riding in the bottom when it was 90 deg out in like 13 mins roughly. new rad i can ride easy 30 mins depends on how hot and the wind is. yeah they work very well. in the dead of winter say 40 degs out my bike would get to like 100 deg temp wise if that. so i cover half of rad up to let it get warmer.

Which radiator do you have? Quote
Mullet Man Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 (edited) Which radiator do you have? i got a toomey one. i wondered about these also. Edited November 24, 2006 by Mullet Man Quote
Hollister_Hitman Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 Sorry I missed the part about you saying you had a toomey. Sounds like a good investment after a cool head if I need it. Quote
b33rs Posted November 24, 2006 Author Report Posted November 24, 2006 I was looking at the PWR or the Pro Design radiator, but thought the oversize would work even better :beer: Quote
werner Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 PWR is a good radiator and they are cheaper then the ProDesign. I dont think Toomey makes radiators anymore even through they still have them on their webpage (thats what i was told my local shop but not confirmed) if they do i have always liked the Toomey radiator :ninja: Quote
differentstrokes Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 I saw Magnum oversized radiators for sale in a dirtwheels ad for $275, I'm sure they have the same capacity as all the others. Quote
Ruko Posted November 24, 2006 Report Posted November 24, 2006 I saw Magnum oversized radiators for sale in a dirtwheels ad for $275, I'm sure they have the same capacity as all the others. I have the Magnum one and it works great as well... runs much cooler now. Quote
feedmelies Posted November 25, 2006 Report Posted November 25, 2006 Take a look at Torchworks. I searched and a member here was really happy with their quality. I think I am going to pick one up. http://www.torchworks.net/ $325 and you can get their billet water pump impeller for $60 if you buy them together. Not bad. Quote
smokin 2 stroke Posted November 26, 2006 Report Posted November 26, 2006 would u guys recomend one for the temps around 70 80 avergae i geuss cause im thinking bout getting one now but dont know if i need casue im riding in the desert or anything but when i do ride its for a long time Quote
Animalman294 Posted November 27, 2006 Report Posted November 27, 2006 They are always a good idea, the cooler the bike runs the better it is. The only question you need to ask yourself is if you can afford one................... :beer: Quote
baddsheee Posted November 27, 2006 Report Posted November 27, 2006 Got a toomey one myself here, I'm happy with it. I guess it kind of depends how hard you are riding it also. If you're just cruisin in the desert then what for. I don't really know anyone that just cruises on a shee though. That torchworks one looks pretty nice. bling bling :cool: Quote
