Darn, it seems like only yesterday that I had to bust my last 7602 purchase out of UK customs (Britain's flat broke right now and needs all the import duty it can get). Looks like maybe another spending spree is in the air - I haven't seen a set of braces this practical available from the UK. The Cafe Husky mug is tipping me over the edge...
I was out in the forest last Saturday when I heard the most fearsome growl approaching. I snuck up and was able to get a pic of this wild husky wearing our rad braces in it's natural environment. [/IMG]
Yeah, I felt pretty stupid later. I found a pile of shredded orange plastic about 100 yards away. I think it had just fed on a KTM.
Clay sent out a set and the Great news is they fit the 2010 TE 250 so they will also fit the TXC and TC 250 An hour later they were ready for action... They come down the outside to cover the open side of rad from a direct hit, very stout and look trick and all hell..
Hey all, I just received and installed my 7602 radiator braces and have to say they are AWESOME! The fit is great, they are super solid and they allow you keep your fan, and OEM radiator louvers if you like. I would for sure recommend these to anyone with a Husky who wants radiator braces. Another home run by Colomoto!
I put mine on today also but had a little problem with the fan hitting the decomp cable. I had to shim the guard out about 3/16 and cut one of the braces on the fan. Other than that they fit and look very strong. I have a E3 bike as well and have had problems with the fan finding a happy home since I got it.
Sorry about the fan not working well on your bike. With the added height of the 510 cylinder it makes things very cramped in that area, especially with the pre 2008 gas tanks, which are a little lower than the 2008 and up tanks. Sounds like you got it figured out already, but you can also re drill 3 new holes for the screws that hold the fan.
No worries. I think I have a orphaned bike anyway. It really wasnt a problem and the fan doesnt work now so it might get taken off anyway. P.S. Was the bottom hole on the fan side supposed to line up with the mounting tab on the frame? Instead of using the nut on the bolt that holds the spacer I put the spacer on the bolt and threaded it in the existing tab. Thanks for the quick shipping, it beat my other orders that I had placed the day before and they are on the east coast.
