I dont see any flaws in having 2 fans? I wish I had 2! last weekend my fan came unplugged and my fuse blew and my temp went to 254F....... a second fan hard wired to the battery with a bling bling toggle switch would be money in situations like that, and would be premo for hot summer days!

Is there any way to make a whole perimeter frame for the radiator?
you could but no need this does its job well and its light. plus that includes way more work than needed which brings the price up. My goal is to make nice parts that are strong and can be had buy the guy that got laid off.

Re: F4i Dual Fan Radiator Cage

With the dual fan cage you can run 1 fan and if you decide to use 2 the optionn is there!

Re: F4i Dual Fan Radiator Cage

What year 636's are you looking for? I'm in Milwaukee and we may be able to get you an '04 and an '05 to fabricate some stuff for.

Re: F4i Dual Fan Radiator Cage

We just made one of these for the 03-04 636. Not for dual fan setup, but to support the radiator tabs. Looks very similar.

Re: F4i Dual Fan Radiator Cage

wait a second, the cage mounts just to the TOP of the radiator? It doesn't support the bottom or it DOES support the bottom?

Also how thick is that steel? I used 1"x1/8" on my friends radiator, and that **** just bent after a couple crashes..

Cage looks dope though, I like how you mounted the second fan.. I've been meaning to get out and put my second fan on, but didn't have any ideas on how to build the tabs to hold it


Btw heres a couple pics of my cage, and a couple pics of my friends cage.. just to help people out!

radiator cages are a MUST unless you want to replace your radiator after a few dozen hard drops

(btw MY cage on my bike is ghetto.. I used steel I had laying around the garage, didn't buy anything.. But my radiator is mounted ROCK SOLID..
I used 12 bar material for part of it







Heres pics of the radiator cage I built for my friends bike.. His radiator tabs were completely gone when he bought his f4i.. So I had to build something to support the entire radiator.. If I did it again though, I'd use thicker steel so it doesn't bend








(btw not stepping on your toes, im not selling mine lol, just showing people pics to give them ideas)

I agree the 2nd fan is pointless, but everyone I know has to run zip-ties because their tabs ripped off

Re: F4i Dual Fan Radiator Cage

I've already made one too... mine is a full wrap cage, steel all the way around w. steel upper tabs.. They are super easy to make if you have some basic welding ability
