Post by Jingles56 »

Hi guys my factory 510 radiator has seen better.ive had it in at the local shop getting a leak fixed and they say it needs a new core put in but they r wanting $400 for a new core.was thinking of just buying a hole new one and have been looking on eBay and I could get one for around $350 but says it made in china.has anyone else had one from China.where else would be a good place to look or go to

Thanks

You could probably get a new Aluminium one locally for a lot less greif that Ebay.
Fenix radiators are at least in NZ.

The Fenix Otago rep will more than likely be working over new years.
