Default Full Exhaust - headers touch radiator??

Anyone have any ideas why. It is right at the bottom of the radiator where the bracket is on the bottom. I may just get a piece of metal to make a new bracket, but if anyone else has a reason/solution then let me know.

Because its aftermarket and aftermarket motorcycle parts are overpriced and under engineered. What kind of header?

who makes it.
I have never heard of this problem ever....

you technically could push the radiator forward a little with a bracket as forementioned
however.
If your exhaust is that far ahead i would say probably its angled wrong, or not bolted in properly.

There has never been an aftermarket company (reputable) that has had that problem.
If it is a reputable company i would say Send the thing back as for a replacement.
