NordieBro has put a drill bit through the right hand rad.
Where's the best/cheapest/quickest place to get a replacement?

You sure it is not repairable ?, got a mate who claims it was not a drillbit ( I'm suspicious ), but his new 6day needed a radiator repair after he installed his radiator braces, epoxy & away it went.

KneedIt works well to, I've seen a YZF radiator tat took a 1.5inch branch straight through that was repaired with that stuff.

There is this from the KTM radiator thread ( rm250 from same ebay seller ) http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/High-Per-aluminum-radiator-SUZUKI-RM250-01-02-03-04-05-06-07-08-2-STROKE-/300939064030?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item46115db2de

Try epoxy as Takatimu says, that is what the radiator guys use for mild corrosion repairs otherwise the chinese radiators seem a good buy.

Would've thought a decent alloy welder could easily sort that for you mate.

Wheel and Frame in Cambridge will repair that, they do a good job

Has to be a bolt on replacement.
He called me as he was heading off to Alexandra and the bike will have to follow in a week.
