Thumbs down Weak Radiators

Needless to say I found out how weak the 600rr radiator is today. On the way to blackhawk tech I took a rock in it and spewed anti freeze everywhere. Im trying to see if the moose steel goo will work or if anyone has any other ideas. A new radiator is 400 and I dont want to spend that.

I know there's a few places that do radiator repair...they clean and braze the offending area... Usually holds better than the original, I know...I had one done. If you can't find anyplace that does it, my uncle works at CarQuest/GTC in Reedsburg, and he is certified in radiator repair.

Check around, should be a lot cheaper than a new radiator...or second choice, check on E-Bay for a nice 'low miles' used one.

van, now your gonna have to sell your jacket, helmet and possibly your side plastics to be able to afford a new radiator!!

if the hole is small enough, you could use that moose ****, i've used that bars stop leak on car radiators before, works like a champ!!
