Here is a cover to protect our ninja radiator from damage as it will expose small rock and other stuffs.

Estimate will be around USD100+- including shipping. The shipping cost is killing the price of the product.

is there no way to ship this through the postal service? I know it would be less than that if you could ship through them. :)

this looks like it could fit in a flat rate box.

Not bashing your product or anything...looks like a nice quality piece...but has anyone had something happen to their radiator that would have been prevented by a product like this? I understand the point of having one and for the right price I would def pick one up for those "just in case" instances...but for that kinda money I don't see the justification given the probabilities of damage occuring. Now if those damn shipping prices weren't so much I'm sure this product would be reasonably priced and then I'd buy one :). IMO though. But does look like a real nice product

Seems like when you put stuff in front of the radiator, the temps go up.

really? well I can see why, restricts airflow. is it a siginificant amount of temp increase tho? I'm trying to weigh if this will be a cool little mod or will it have adverse effects on performance. any info would be great - thanks! :)

Another question- is it possible to get the Monster logo in red? It looks pretty cool but I don't want any green slowing my bike down. thanks.

I don't have a monster stencil. I would rather have the green monster than no design anyway.

chris, when you link to youtube, don't put the whole address. just the code at the end.

{youtube}code{/youtube} substitute [] instead of {}
