I just came back from the GLMVPA Fall trail ride at camp Grayling (MI) and found a small leak in the radiator. I pulled it and took it to the radiator shop to be repaired so I thought this would be a good time to make sure it is "correct" before reinstalling.
From research that I have done, I believe the radiator is painted black while the shroud is OD. Is that correct? What about the cap?
Part of my confusion comes from the fact that where black paint has flaked off on the top of the radiator I found the remains of some very old OD paint.
As always, thanks for your input.
