    was thinking of adding a radiator cover, but don't want to add things just for the sake of it.
    Would you say the rad is more prone to damage, being a naked bike.

    Definitely a good investment and it looks good as well.

    Within weeks Of bike being new I had a large dink in the rad. Opted for the Evotech set including the oil cooler. Very easy to fit, looks good and is good quality.

    An ex work mate of mine bought a new Yamaha R1 with the crossplane crank when they first came out. A stone holed the radiator before it was a month old.:oops::(:mad:

    Just saying!:rolleyes:

    The radiator is the first line of defence. All bikes should come with factory fitted radiator protectors if you ask me

    +1 for the Evotech. Protection, plus it makes the rad look better in a subtle way.
