Hi guys got the polo rad for the tiger I have. The top bleed port comes out the side meaning I need to mount the rad all the way across to the right hand side. Then the pipe should be able to bend 90°just !. Does anyone else have this rad fitted to the e1 cat if so any pics pleasssssssee ? 😉

I use the same rad in my E1. I just blanked the small pipe off with a piece of hose about 2 inches long and a bolt shoved in the end held in place with a jubilee clip. Been fine for years. The standard Tiger header tank sits higher so the air bleeds via that.

Right I know some say to connect it but it would make mounting it a pain as you can't get a smooth 90 in position. Have you used the standard header tank mounted on those v plates in front of battery still?

Yes I use the Tiger supplied header tank and bracket. I will have photos from when I changed rads. If you U2U me your email I'll dig them out and send them.
