After you spray the foam on the radiator put cardboard against the front of the radiator.. it will force the foam to go completely through the radiator fins

I heard a radiator relo kit helps with overheating problems on trials that's mostly likely what I'll get in the future plus it looks cool🤠🤙🏾

Nu-Calgon Evap Foam No Rinse (green label) seems like it looked way better for deep cleaning. I got my new bruteforce and I've overheated twice so I'm looking at rad relocator kit my issue is mud getting thrown on the back of my rad from my tires as there is no inner fenders

Do you ever have a problem with the Brute force burning your left leg or just being so hot on your left leg that it's uncomfortable to ride the bike?

Will give this a go before I tear my bike apart ha ha ha.

I use a chemical called NU Brite. I got it on Amazon but its not on there now. I get it in a one gallon jug and put in a spray bottle and spray the radiator with it. It foams up and pushes dirt out of the fins. Use gloves, glasses and a face shield because this stuff burns if you get it on your skin. Makes my radiator look brand new again. I also take the fan off (it's pretty easy just 4 bolts) to clean both sides really well. After I use it I just spray the radiator with a hose. I have a 2020 Brute Force 750 and love watching your videos. Keep up the great work.

My radiator has crap stuck in there from driving through high weeds. I need to clean it before it causes issues.

I had the same problem with mine. From June 2019 when I got mt 2019 750 until March of 2020 I did the samething taking it apart and cleaning it just about after every ride. I got fed up in March of 2020 and purched a radiator relocation kit....best money ever spent. With the radiator up top i have never had to deep clean it like that again. I would recommend getting one. Another good video

i had a kawi twin that i mud raced and trailed for 12 years, they over heat bad if you do that and dont get 100 percent of the crap out of it every event, the coil cleaner worked but fades the plastic over time, so i started using simple green with the foaming tip its non caustic so you can breath it and doesnt mess up your bike. the proper way to clean and the easiest on the kawi is take the fan out and lay it to the side takes like 5 min and do it from the back and hose it out, pressure wash is never used on a quad by me it destroys everything, . when its done you shine a shop light through and look at it from the front and you should not see blocked areas

Hey Chad, do you find that even when your radiator is clean the fan runs alot? I'm new to the kawasaki brute forces. Just trying to find out some information. Thank you

[ricepadi]

Looked like it worked pretty good. Thanks for the tip.

[Sunshine-dzuc]

Did the radiator got damage, after a while?

[clintonjones]

[patmccafferty]

I wonder if U were to reverse the fan like on a dozer would it help to keep the weeds out😎😎😎
