Carbon Radiator Covers

[1olbull]

I've been kicking the idea around about just removing the radiator covers to make the rad look a tad bit smaller. I've seen others do it and didn't look THAT bad.

Perhaps check out the @hogweed cover . . .
Sure have liked mine the past few years.

This guy actually makes or got made a smaller radiator for his Rocket...

That the one mate did you see the 3different size radiators layer out one stock one and 2 smaller sizes I think

I'm just wondering if the smaller rad cut down on the cooling capacity/efficiency?
Looks good however.

I think they made them 40mm thick while the stock radiator are only 25mm and 20mm higher to.
Pretty sure he just took 2" of each side...

What other CF Rocket bits have you got for the R3R already?
The Japanese CF parts for R3s have skyhigh prices.

There are Spanish eBay suppliers of CF front guard extenders who probably source from China too.

I know many Aussie suppliers of CF source it from China after the order is received.

About 14 Captains picked up the CF front fork guard on eBay from 'Cactus_composites' in Spain since @hogweed put us on to them.


The cheapest eBay listings for the same stuff you sourced from China is being sold from Spain. Always compare the same item being sold in multiple currencies as they do not update them for currency fluctuations and bargains and overpricing can occur.

And this appears to be the infill panel for LHS with moulding for accessory power plug.

Yes I have the fork covers they finally came.
The radiator covers from Spain are still more expensive than Alibaba. Cause they are buying them from there and reselling them..
And probably et myself a set of side cover soon...

If 5 buyers commit how does the deal go down?
Does the seller take individual request of each (5) buyer such as the money, carbon fiber preference (prepeg/twill), and gloss or matte finish?

Or does the order have to be the same such as carbon fiber material and finish?


Oh..... I've ordered the fork covers as well form cactus ... who knows when they will be here. The tracking number doesn't explain much.
