New to the f2
Hello everyone, i'm kyle from delawre and i finally bought my first motorcycle. It is a 93 f2 w/ 35k miles that i bought for a grand. The plastics are shot but the frame is straight and she runs so i'm happy.
Anyways, i need some help or info about radiators on this bike. I noticed that this bike leaks coolant really bad when she warms up and then i looked at the radiator and someone tried sealing it with like blue goop, who knows. I was wondering if any other radiators off of bikes fit our cibbers, thanks in advanced and this is one of the pics i have

Can't help you on the radiator cross-reference there - but if you have a true old-school radiator shop near you, they can work wonders with broken/damaged ones and might cost less to fix than buy new.
There's a local place I use that repairs all kinds of stuff - especially vintage/rare radiators for collector cars & tractors.

If you can locate the source of the leak you could probably saughter it shut. I dumped mine and coolant was dripping out every second. I took it off saughtered around the leak and used some dry weld apoxy on top of it. If not you could find one on ebay from 70-130 bucks.
