Hi All,
My dealer installed EE radiator braces on my '09 FE590. While riding an event on the weekend I noticed I had a coolant leak coming from the top area of the rads. Turns out the T-shaped radiator hose that runs between the two radiators and runs through the frame is 1/4-3/8 of inch short (now that braces are installed) and prevents a proper seal from forming on the one radiator. The hose clamp was all but welded on, as was the securing bolt for the brace, and yet it still leaked. So my first question is; has anyone else had this issue, and if so, how did you solve it ( as I doubt Husaberg offers a longer version of that T-shaped radiator hose)? Also, I ended up putting almost a full liter of water into the rad in order to limp the bike home. Meaning the system was practically dry, and I am now concerned of what damage may have occurred to the motor. Any suggestions for ensuring everything is right?
