    FZR Cooling

    What is everyone using for motor cooling on their FZ/SHO?? Right now I am running stock cooling but have added a dedicated 1/2" line for the Fizzle IC, but I am dumping all IC water overboard afterwards. I am using a VX 3 way splitter to eliminate the oem feed line for the IC. I would think that by going from a 4 way to a 3 way splitter I am already increasing the water volume to the cooling system. Anyone have any other suggestions? Post up your setups!

    I went Riva intercooler/cooling kit with the VX cooling fitting. Its amazing how choked off the stock fittings are when compared to the Riva kits new fittings.

    I have spent the last hour trying to figure out what to do for cooling...

    do you have a link to using the VX 3 way? I want to set up my cooling now but im currently on stock IC.

    this works well with... keeping gas out of oil, intake mani temps are kept low, block stays around 150 depending on water temps you ride in, uses the oem flush fitting to flush the entire system at one time, thermo is removed, second water exit on block is used, great system I highly recommend it. If anyone wants to know the details let me know and i can get them hooked up with the system.
