Will ride it further, I guess. No BBQ as of yet :)
The bag doesn't bent the side panel, it's OK for the muffler clearance. At least the panel hasn't started smoking yet so I assume it'll be fine.
Thanks for the link, will try to source something similar off of taobao.

The Chinese Beast of a Motard is doing fine. Has been reliable so far and...WOW...the spokes don't snap-up! Achievement!
Problem now:
I have a Boyesen high-speed pump and an additional fan on the stock radiators. The right one has a CB-400 fan, the left one doesn't (not enough clearance between the rad and plastic tank cover). The bike still gets hot as hell.
It might probably be quite normal for competition, but that's a righ-leg-BBQ in Nanjing traffic.
Dear MCM gurus, do you have any suggestions here?
Much appreciated,
Steve

ride faster
you could try "water wetter" some magic stuf which increases the thermal conductivity of water
it does work but maybe not enough to combat nanjing summer heat
on a brighter note they are building a race track in yangzhou
so you can come and tear around it

Sure, riding faster would be a solution. I'd rather have it stop overheating in daily traffic, though. That's challenging, but I guess somehow possible. Heard about that water wetter and there was something else mentioned with it (engine ice, I suppose). But could I get that in China? I tried taobao - no luck. Asked local dealers - they never heard of anything of that sort.
Any idea/guess: would it work if I stuck a larger one-piece radiator there? Say, something from Yamaha FZR or CB 1000?

Fill the tank with the gasoline from canister that was in the freezer overnight. I guarantee you that this engine will be cooler.
Somehow I have the impression that the stock carburetor is not working as it should and makes a lean mixture at mid revs, and the engine overheats. But that's just my presupposition, which does not have to be anywhere near the actual situation.
Who knows, maybe the bottleneck of the cooling system are the radiators, their too small cooling surface, internal volume, how to say... their permeability. Have you had a chance to compare them with the original CRF's radiators? In the end, you can ask for help guys from Motgon Forum.Last edited by Zorge; 08-04-2012 at 12:05 PM.

After I installed free flow exhaust the bike started backfiring like crazy. Put the baffle in - problem solved. No backfiring, no smoke, steady idle, nice pull through RPMs. May as well not be the carb.
Nevere had a chance to see the stock CRF 450's rads, but taobao lists Yaxiang ones reverse compatible with CRF. Read it somewhere they were identical, but can't be sure. Saw nice oversized CRF 450 '05 radiators on eBay, but those were expensive as hell and the dude ships states only.

Hi Morfar, thanks for the link. Will think about it.

Who says you have to use radiators for motorcycles, which are, as you can see, not cheap at all? I know some guys that replaced their warped and leaky Apollo AGB-36 stock radiators with car radiator heaters. It is not a simple bolt-on job, you has to make a sub-frame and fuss around with hoses, but if there is no alternative, or she is too expensive...
