Radiator Guards
Been thinking about getting a radiator gaurd for the zx10r , just wondering if anyone has had any problems with them with instaling/faulty/areodynamics issues with any particular brands etc. Looking to get a 'radguard'.
Im fairly convinced i need one becuase i dont want to be buying a new one if it gets damaged, i have a feeling it would be rather pricey. All comments welcome, zx-10r

I got one on my 9 it's the ducks guts!!! When another bloke got a rock thorugh his radiator last Halls Gap it convinced me they were worth buying.

Re: Radiator Guards
got one on my nine. a radguard one... overall is pretty great, but the top mounting bracket wasnt quite sitting where it was meant to (bottom was fine) so it took me about 3 hours and several trips to the hardware to actually install... not sure if it was a one off issue, but it did annoy me a little...
all in all though, after picking several stones our of my radiator in the past, im happy to have it.

Re: Radiator Guards
Make your own. Buy the mesh from super cheap and cut to suit ya radiator...cost $30 and have enough to do 3 bikes.
