What do you use for radiator protection

[41racing]

After one of my radiators taking a little damage I realize I need some protection. What is everyone using? I have a 2013 wr450.

Unabikers radiator shrouds are super!

Devol....

The devol and una-biker ones are nice, but you will get a giant block of ice stuck to the aluminum grill on the front.

I prefer a brace like works connection with a pre-filter over the stock plastic fins in front. The pre-filter keeps snow off of and out of your radiators, reduces ice build up and keeps your water temps higher. The braces helps resist the radiator from getting smashed.

Devol. And they do ice up, but are sure tuff. Saved me on two occasions.

I was thinking that a tunnel cooler might work better on the bikes(mines a 570 Berg). It would get the coolers out of the way of trees and $hit . Haven't looked at the bike closely yet(still re-habbing the new knee(and fractured hip now) . Would a tunnel cooler create more consistent temps or am I over thinking it?

I had to go to a tunnel cooler for my KX500. I was reaching 250f within minutes......

i got my tunnel cooler setup right at the end of the season. it worked really well in warm spring conditions, using a ktm 55* stat on a cr500 temps stayed 130-150 even on super long steep pulls. all the guys i was riding with had issues with having to let of and cool the rads off with handfuls of slush. when i had rads i always had issues with temps on long pulls
