Oil cooler stone guard

dacs · 16-04-2021, 01:10 PM

Mr Gazza made me promise to take a photo for the forum, so here is one of the two guards in my possession, fitted to the M1000 -

note the added blind of the ends of the oil lines, courtesy of 10 minutes in the steaming nickel vats of Gazza's Norfolk Bling Emporium, or shed as we call them here in Norfolk.
Here is the other one I got, this will go on the 750. Note the optional extra "Norfolk" fitting kit -

I will let the forum know how they stand up to flying sugar beet.

Many thanks for posting that dacs. Pleased to see they look okay and cover the matrix on that type too. Quite a different appearance though. The guards seem to need a black background to set the shiny off?
The end covers on my cooler were scruffy and didn't really paint very well, so I very carefully covered them with aluminium foil tape of the type supplied with foil backed insulation sheets to continue the vapour barrier on the joins of the sheets. (Available from reputable builders merchants.) We used to use this to cover model planes to get a metal finish, then lightly score in panel lines and rivets, but it's a black art to get it on wrinkle free. The beauty is that it polishes up like ali. because it is ali!

Thanks for all your orders guys... It's off the post office with a pannier full of cooler guards tomorrow..
