thanks motodriver and jsherm. your advice/offers are very kind indeed.
we have talked to Dual Star and Arrowhead Motosports. they basically dont sell radiators anymore (either of them) and the plastic gas tanks they would otherwise sell have been leaking lately so "no go".
fortunately as you all may know the mechanics here are quite skilled at fixing everything that could possibly go wrong for very little money. the only problem (from past experiences) is we dont know how long the repairs will last. even tho my buddys tank looks like a crushed ![beer](https://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/images/smilies/beer.gif) can and is leaking fuel im sure the shop we found will fix it to some operable degree (and probly paint flames on it as well).
the radiatior looks only to be bent at the mounts. we found a radiator shop as well who will likely put it all back in place for us very soon.
the only problem now is my friends foot which is taking its sweet time to heal.
thanks very much again. am quite grateful.
