It's the first time I see these on ebay. Is there someone here thats going to try them? Or have they already poped up before?

They came out with a first gen Tecate a couple weeks ago and 2nd gen Tecate this week. A little more pricey than dirt bike stuff but they look decent

I saw the 2nd gen Tecate ones and am really thinking out getting a set. I think when I have enough extra $ again I will order them.

If you need to find a good replacement set of rads it can be hard. I think it's about time! Not everything is bad from China. Morally bad, yes. Quality, not necessarily..

Im personally thrilled to see these. I have been guarding so many good tri-z radiator sets because they are hard to find without bent fins. These will cool better. And I don't gotta worry about getting a stick kicked up through them as much anymore.

I bought one for the 1st gen T3. It looks nice. The welds are clean. They are a great option for the Tecate guys since the 1st gen rads seem to break. The dirtbike ones have been around for awhile and havent heard many complaints.

Thanks for the replies, it's always nice to see something new for our trikes.
Cochran, have you installed it yet? Any fitment issues?

I have not installed mine yet. I can quickly throw the grommets in and set it in the triple trees when I get home after Thanksgiving.
