Yesterday I rang a radiator repair place about my leaking Falco oil cooler, I was specific about it being a motorbike cooler.
The guy said ' no problem, what ever it is, what ever the damage, we can repair it'
Yes ! i thought,got the cooler off, drove there this morning and the guy said 'Sorry mate, cant do anything with that, its too small ' :smt013
Was tempted to make him eat the bloody thing, but then I'd have no cooler at all.
3 hours driving, £10 in fuel, why bullshit me ?

Ha ha, I drive an ancient Suzuki 413 jeep, knackered leaf springs, knackered steering box, very low geared, you have to be brave to do much over 40 !
It very rarely exceeds 2000 rpm, that makes ecomical driving around the lanes
