ps would consider building another if anyone is interested? Can fit with Vincent V-twin , but with identical layout if that is what floats your boat
Holy shit..... I'm speechless man. That is a serious build you've got there. Straight up amazing! Damn good job. How long did it take ya to get it done?
As in unable to be ridden hot. That seat must get 200+ degrees.
I had a 2004 factory and it ran hot with a stock rad that was three times as large as the under seat one shown.
Very cool concept, but I just can't believe that that bike will be able to be used.
I bow to it's creator, for he is the chosen one. I have seen the light and I will now forever live with my inferior skill, knowing that I will never surpass that machine. It is the messiah of modern cafe's!

Sounds like you had a lemon or a partially plugged radiator core. The one in the shop here never gets above 205* even mercilessly flogger in the depth of summer. Also, just because the radiator has a different shape doesn't mean that it's lacking for surface area. As well, if the fans are aggressive enough I doubt it's a huge issue.
