5. Operating Principles

The Evotech Performance Radiator and Oil Cooler Guard Set functions as a protective barrier for your motorcycle's cooling system components. Its primary purpose is to prevent damage from road debris such as stones, gravel, and other foreign objects that can be kicked up by tires or encountered during riding.

The precision-engineered mesh design allows for optimal airflow to the radiator and oil cooler, ensuring efficient cooling performance while providing robust protection. No active "operation" is required from the user once installed; the guards perform their function passively.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance of your Evotech Performance guards will ensure their continued effectiveness and appearance.

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the guards to remove accumulated dirt, insects, and debris. Use a soft brush or low-pressure water spray. Avoid high-pressure washers directly on the guards or radiator fins.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the guards for any signs of damage, such as bends, cracks, or loose mounting points. Check for any foreign objects lodged in the mesh.
• Fastener Check: Ensure all mounting bolts remain securely tightened. Re-tighten if necessary, but do not overtighten.
• Damage: If the guards sustain significant damage, consider replacement to ensure optimal protection for your radiator and oil cooler.
