Anyone know where to get a new radiator and possibly how much it will cost.

Unfortunately you're probably gonna wind up buying from a dealer, there are a few sites that sell Yami OEM parts, might be used but if they give warranty who cares

If you can get it fixed under warranty... then that would be great! if you have to replace it yourself... give Jordan @ babbittsonline.com a call - he is a stryker owner and dealer--- he hooks us all up with great pricing / shipping...

unfortunately warranty isnt an option. Yesterday when taking out the stock exhaust I bumped it and dented about 4 fins. When on a test drive after it started spraying out of a pin size hole

That or have a radiator shop simply repair it...MUCH cheaper than replacing.

take loose the 2 bolts at at the bottom of the radiator when working on the pipes. Pull the radiator down and push towards the front tire.

My bad, Am I toooo late?

 

[sdw75]

Where were you yesterday with that advice.......? Oh well lesson learned.

 

[mikoloe]

I was waiting for one of my GF's to get out of work, she was making he great escape! I told her not to forget the stash or she was walking home!

a radiator shop is you best and cheapest bet

2nd that. Not a fan of stop leak etc. Could work but can also plug up important stuff.
Now if you are just trying to eek out a season on X vehicle than sure dump it in. Otherwise get the repair done correct.

No need top replace IMO unless the radiator shop says so. Down the road maybe because you punctured it but then again many on the road are that way...

 

[sdw75]

Well here's to hoping the repair worked. If not I lose a month of riding for the backordered rad.

 

[sdw75]

Well the rad shop fixed the leak but I think he closed off the passage a little. After the bike warms up the coolant light flashes on and off. Just have to wait for the new one to come in.

If your light came on when you initially popped the hole and overheated your bike try disconnecting the ground on your battery, count to ten and reconnecting it.
I'm no Yammy tech but It's worked on a couple vehicles I've had to clear the code stored for the overheat.:thumb:

Then...
A simple test is to heat up the bike and spray water on the radiator and watch the area in question...
Does the water evaporate evenly around the repair or does the part after the repair stay wet longer.
If it all dries off even then no problem.
If it stays wet on the fins after the repair then it's not flowing well there.
A good radiator man will fix that for you.

 

[sdw75]

Thanks for the advice. I was wondering if there could be an old code because when the light comes on the bike feels normal. I will be trying that after this work block.

 

[sdw75]

Well I fianlly had a chance to check it out. Definitely going to have to sit tight and wait for the new rad from Babbitts. I sprayed water on the rad after the bike was good and hot. It boiled right off from around the repaired area and just evaporated normally from the rest of the rad surface.
