Lost1888 Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 This is the only aftermarket radiator I have ever came across.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PWR-Aluminum-Radiator-Suzuki-SV650-SV-650-2003-2008_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trkparmsZ72Q3a1205Q7c66Q3a2Q7c65Q3a12Q7c39Q3a1Q7c240Q3a1318Q7c301Q3a1Q7c293Q3a1Q7c294Q3a50QQ_trksidZp3286Q2ec0Q2em14QQhashZitem140292333079QQitemZ140292333079QQptZMotorcyclesQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories I don't know if it is any bigger or not. I also don't know anyone who has one. I have a stock 1K radiator for sale on SVR $120 for pick up. I'm selling it for $150 shipped. I have more pic of stuff in here.http://s159.photobucket.com/albums/t132/mdnd777/daves%201K%20parts/Wow I have really jacked this thread up pretty good!

I'm looking into it right now. IDK never looked into it till now. I will make a SV talk thread when I figure something out. What is the hottest temp you have seen. I think my fan turns on around 212. It has been discussed on SVR a lot and 212 is about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost1888 Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 I tried to start a new thread in TEch but I guess I'm not allowed.Anyways I look up the thermostat on Ron Ayres. They only show one thermostat and tempsensor. So I called and they said they don't know of any aftermarket lower temp thermostat ot a lower temp Tempture sensor. With a bigger radiator it might not warm up as fast but the temp sensor works in conjunction with the thermostat to actuate the fan to kick on. Someone correct me if I'm wrong! I'm am by no means a expert. I just tinker on everything I own and learn along the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jermattak Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 I still LOVE the oldschool sportbikes, newer bikes just don't have that MUSCLE look, they look Star Trekish, almost scooterish, But thats just my opinion, doesn't matter what I like, someone does.

Lost1888 Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 AMEN Brotha!Sorry' date=' the naked SV is where it's happening. No frills, no bullshit and extremely capable in the right hands. This new bike looks like dog shit. It reminds me of what Ducati did to the Monster. Except the new Monster actually has performance updates.[/quote'] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owndjoo Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 i've always loved the SV's. had one as my first streetbike and raced one to a few championships in my novice season of roadracing. Amazing bikes for how basic they are. The inverted forks aren't really needed, but i've never ridden one with the gixxer front end either... If i start racing again it mite be back on an SV, for simple fun factor,cheapness, and the close racing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
