Gidday from downunder . Well fellow k hoppers I 've been trying to get my k1100lt to be summer friendly for 4 summers now {sick of cooked nuts on the hot days }got stuffed around with fleabay getting a 3 core check out photos on RECO RAD post ,anyway heres my latest efforts. Having finnaly got a good 3 core I tried mounting radiator more forward and less angled as I think it tends to push the air up under the tank as it sits standard also pushing it forward should allow more room for exit of hot air . PHOTOS SHOW MOVEMENT OF LOWER BRACKETS BY RERIVETING & LONGER BOLT & SPACER FOR TOP MOUNT WILL SEE HOW IT GOES WITH THE HEAT ON MY NEXT RUNS  .[/img]

Good job. I see you used the original holes and washers - I drilled new holes.
Good job on the radiator recondition, too. Nice to know it's not that difficult should it need it.
