Hi All,having recently got my k running I am getting vapour collecting on the frame down near the steering lock (on the left side of the radiator at the top) when running.
Am I right in thinking that the radiator is toast?,is so,will a k1100 rad fit straight in or can anyone tell me as to what is happening to my rad?,cheers,look forward to reading your posts, cheers,Artie

A K1100 will fit but pull yours out and get it tested. It may be a simple thing to fix.
