636 Troubles

whatsup..

so my radiator is messed up, my front wheel is rubbing the bottom of the rad when i do stoppies, really bad, i wore a hole in it but fixed with a bit of chemical metal.. the bottom mount that goes to the block was broke so i made a new one and fitted it but its still rubbing real bad.. one of the top mounts is broke so the rad is sitting a lil bit lower than it should be but even if i jacked it up somehow i still reakon its gonna rub...

anyone hav this problem.. bent forks maybe ?

maybe its time for a r1 front end ?

Make a new bottom mount that is a little shorter than the one you have right now.

plus run zip ties from where the fairings are supposed to mount up at the bottom and run it around the motor mounts which will pull it up a bit
