That would be interesting Bill. What sort of curve is it?


Paul, Up late I see!  The radiator...the curve of the radiator is concave toward what would be the
front of the motorcycle with the outer front edges about 2 inches ahead of the center. The
designers also wanted tire clearance I'd wager, but few of the bike radiators were curved. The
dimensions are as follows approx. 13 inches tall, about 16 inches wide and the core thickness is
about 1 inch. The unit is crossflow with tanks on both sides. It seems to be a rather tight core,
that is the finning is narrowly spaced compared to some of the Griffin units I have seen.
