Can I pull it out? or just leave it? can you actually get them fixed?

Cheers

Das ist fooked.

It'll still work, just less efficiently. Unless it leaks, then bin it.

I stand to be corrected, but I don't think you can repair that sort of damage.

just gentally pull them appart(the water ways) with hands use small flathead screwdriver to sraighten fins just DONT crack it or your gonna have to re weld it (aluminum is a real bastard to weld)

I talked to Colemans and they said to call Pukekohe radiators. Only going to cost $100 odd bucks to get fixed up!! Sweet!!! :banana: :kick: :apint: :eyepoke:

if its a aluminium radiator & only the tanks at either end are dented your best off to just leave it alone unless its leaking. when i was dinged by a car & crunched my body work the thermal coupling for the fan took a nasty hit, i got it checked by a radiator shop & was advised that seeing it was aluminium & wasn't leaking or causing probs just to leave it alone. if the bike has any age to it the aluminium actually gets brittle after prolonged heating & cooling thus any possible repairs can cause more probs than they solve.

If its not too much of a leak, just use radiator stop leak. its a liquid you pour in your radiator and it seals the leaks. you can get it at most gas stations. Ive done it before and it works good.
