Radiator Shroud

[rutty99]

Does anybody own this shroud and want to share some pictures of what it looks like on their bike from several angles?

I'd be careful there as it appears to mount to the radiator end caps and possibly the frame??? The issue is this; The radiator is mounted in rubber and it MOVES ALLOT. If you mount the trailing edge SOLID to the FRAME you risk vibrations tearing the the Radiator end caps loose. No it won't happen right away but it will happen.

If the trailing section is mounted in rubber, make sure it has the same range of motion and durometer of the radiators rubber isolation mounts.

Does that make sense?

Here are a few different threads about the same (if not the same than very similar) radiator shrouds.

Hope this helps!

FinalImpact,

I don't think it attaches to the frame. It attaches to the radiator itself by two bolts and then rests up against the frame. Thanks for the warning though. I don't think I would have thought of that.

Skooter,

Thanks for all of the great links. There were a couple there that I had not seen previously. I was hoping that maybe someone would have purchased this exact shroud and might want to show off a pic, but I don't think anyone has. The other shrouds are probably close enough to get an idea though.
