Why are the right radiators always beat up?

I've always wondered this, so I'll put it to the group...

If you go on Ebay and search "Husqvarna Radiator", there will always be several left radiators that usually look very good, and only a few right radiators that are nearly always tweaked, bent or otherwise damaged.

Even on my own bike, I have managed to break the rubber mounts on the right, but not left radiator (never managed to tweak it though).

Is it just because the fill cap is on the right side, or is there more to it?

I think it depends which hemisphere you are in. Norther hemisphere riders fall to the right. Southern hemisphere, to the left.
... or is it like Zoolander?

It's a combination of the radious of the earth, which direction your riding in parallel to the equator. North and south of the equator we fall opposite directions. Now factor in the radiator cap is the heavier side of the bike depending on which direction your going in east to west. Now if your traveling north to south it's a toss up on which direction you will fall like a hill climb. Lmao

IDK it sounded good. It's a matter of how fast we can put our foot down before the radiator hits the ground, the rocks. Ect. I hate when this happens on my air cooled bikes. Then I need to add more summer air.
I crack myself up.

definitely zoolander

Who'd a thunk it?

My only problem falling is I go to put a foot down and the earth is too far away. That's my only problem I had in the beginning.

The car coming from the left doesn't respect the stop signal when there's a bike on her right and put it down !
So the radiator hit the ground first.

The only time I came close to dumping my 98 husky wr250 was when a beagle dog was attached to my calf. It seems the popcorn level of noise in the pipe sets dogs off. I also had a pitbull five feet from me in a charging rage ready to eat me when I shut off the bike. He stopped dead. Remember to shut off the bike.
I even took the beagle through on coming traffic trying to get it run over. No help. A week later I had the beagle come at me again this time the front wheel was up. It got back on the sidewalk. He was blocks from home. If it was winter time the ice screws were in. Sorry I love animals but when they bite me because of bad owners.

it depends on if your left or right handed...simple. more right hander ride bikes...

Personally and this is my honest opinion. I know I had to work on it in my teens but I truly feel a somewhat high percentage of right handed riders have few problems with left turns as opposed to right because it is more natural to turn left. Not to forget to mention before motocross and GP auto racing, most racing in the USA was CCW oval racing: to the left.

whole reason shifters were on the right of everything...cant shift with a foot down.

No racing history here, but I must admit, I did one time stop on a trail, look around, take off banking hard right, and catch my right radiator on a tree I hadn't noticed. I figured that was a fluke/chance idiot mistake, not something that would be prevalent enough to exclude the existence of used right radiators that are straight, undamaged and have all of their tabs....

Just my stupid wild arsed guess; if your pipe is on the left it will smack the ground before the radiator will. If you eject to the right there is nothing stopping the radiator from hitting terra firma...

fairly common in the rest of the world years back
