GPI Radiators?

Edited Date/Time 7/2/2015 12:15pm
Found radiators on ebay for $80 from GPI racing. Are they worth a shot? Also, do they hold as much coolant as the stock rads?

I put a set on my CR500 AF conversion, having cut the bottom of the right one for clearance over the PC pipe. Yes, they have greater capacity, and I've raced them for two years with no problems. This includes a couple of slow speed tip-overs and one high-speed loop out that destroyed several other pieces on the bike.

I have a set in transit right now after putting a hole in oem last weekend.

been running GPIs for almost a year. One side is less expensive then most radiator braces out there so I consider them practically disposable. They have a larger core then OEM and the fitment was perfect for my 2011 YZ450f. I do think they bend just as easy as OEM...if not easier.

Oh, I tossed the rad cap that came with it in my toolbox as an emergency spare and used my OEM.

No issues at all.

I had a set on my '11 yz450f for a couple of years. Worked great until I sold it. They were a little wide so I trimmed the plastics a little but had great luck. Their hoses are also pretty good.

i had the GPI hoses for my KX for over a year now. Had to cut them a little to fit, but have been fine. No issues

Just sent mine back to them today as they didn't fit at all. Bike it was for 13 Ktm sx 150, rad louvers were way off from fitting.

I had bad luck with them on my 11 Yz450. The hose joint bend leaked from the start! After fixing that they were good.

I've used a set of these on my last 4 bikes and they've all been great!
