BWB63 Posted December 15, 2004 The rods have studs that srew into the frame. You can't see the threads on the studs, because the picture didn't get them. The stock radiator mounts still work. The shouds work and fit great. if the bike is dropped or crashed the force goes to the angled aluminum and the to the frame insted of the radiator.
