I remember a while back, that Jason (big money carbon monster) was looking into getting some slim radiators made for the S4 / S4R.
Well, as he has now sold his bike and so shelved plans to get the custom radiator made but he did tell me that JHP (Ducati Coventry) were still going to go ahead with the idea. So, I got in touch with them with ball park figures and delivery times etc but they seemed to be a bit vague about if and when it was going to happen, so ......
Anybody made a custom radiator and what actually goes into this process. Is it as simple as finding a slimmer, nicer looking model off another bike and plumbing it in or is it much more complex than that?
The only reason I ask is that I was looking at the carbon radiator covers and at nearly £200 a pop, this money would be better spent on a smaller rad. Anyway, just mulling over the idea so any thoughts on who makes radiators would be great,
best regards all
