My radiator is not perfect...some of the fins are bent...WHAAAAAAHHH!

I just found this: Evotech Performance Radiator Guard for 2014-2015 Yamaha FZ-07 / MT-07 [bun001496] | Motostarz Canada | Motostarz.ca

but $100 for a piece of holey metal just doesn't compute. I think I have a large piece of holey metal around somewhere! I guess my grinder could cut it down to size. Paint it black, drill some bigger holes for mounting, it just might work. Then again, I have no idea what that large piece of metal is really for...what if I discover it's true purpose and end up needing it some day?

ebay also has some for various prices...

I just ordered one of these on ebay. They look remarkably like the one sold under the R&G label for twice as much. Could be the exact same item.
I'll report back when it comes in. There are a few different ebay sellers offering this item for the same approx. amount.

Compare item pic with the pic in this auction for the R&G radiator protector.
