    If anyone has need to straighten or seal any bike (or car?) radiator I found GMX rads at Braintree to provide a pretty good service. One of the twin EXC rads got well bent/twisted & although still holding pressure needed sorting. Came back after a week, as new + some extra reinforcing for a total of £75 which beat KTM's £200 for an OE replacement. Some of the damaged stuff they fix up looked to me well beyond repair. Reasonable cost I thought, polite, punctual & even text you, to within an hour, when the courier will deliver. I'm considering sending them the undamaged one for reinforcing before the inevitable happens.

    That's a great price! A mate had a stone go through the rad on his 2009 'Blade, he was quoted £500 before fitting if I remember correctly. He got his repaired by a guy near Croydon for about £100.
