    Replacement radiator for a 1996 RF900. Can I use a GSX?

    As the title suguests can i use a GSX or another compatible bikes raditor to replace my RF900 raditor that has alot of fin damage? the part number for the RF900 is 1771021E00. could i use say 1771021H00 and use different hoses to connect it to the motor?

    What other models share the same parts as the RF900?

    Cheers
    Jeremy

    If that's the only criteria then you could probably use one out of a small Kubota tractor.

    what part of the transmission on a rf900 has a radiator?

    I see he's used his allocation of dumb questions for his home country already.

    get It re cored if you cant find a proper one.

    This is the right part of the forum if you we're taught how to read correctly then you would see that the full forum name is

    Forum: Engine - Clutch - Transmission
    engine, transmission, internal gearing, clutch, cooling system

    See how cooling system is at the end of the description a bit of a give away that this is the right place for the post. So before you open your mouth about others have a think and make sure you gather all the facts before you speak and represent your country.

    As for the re-coring that is just as expensive as having a new one sent from the UK or US but I have noticed that the RF900 does share some parts with the GSX line hence the question. And thought that maybe you guys would know but that's ok nodrog you represent your country well.

    Cheers

    The bolts to mount the radiator may be different? I bought a brand new radiator for my Z1000 on eBay, $160 plus shipping from memory. Fitted straight on. Can you not find a RF900 radiator on eBay?
