radiators and tree roots.

Hi all,
Just a bit of information for those who do not know yet.
Dropped my 650 in a rutted out, muddy trail. Slipped off a submerged
tree root! (my excuse!) and the radiator took a side swipe on the
said root. Pushed in the side about 1&1/2in aand wrecked the fan.
Managed to get home with out the fan on the freeway but needed about
30 mph to keep it cool on the trails.
OK, bottom line here..........OEM radiator $280 fan assembly $278
AFTER my discount too! Well I fixed the fan with epoxy (blades back
on the hub) and radiator is out for repair.
Another great days riding. We laughed a lot too.
PS Hawaiian ice IS just that..........Like ice but red.
