Yes. Take one off, route a pipe from the exit of the remaining one to the point where the exit of the missing one is meant to go.

Easy.

Broken one of yours?

You can also blank off one of the cylinders and make it a 500 single, if you so choose.

Won't work very well, but then a Storm with only one rad won't cool properly, either.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

:lol: gotcha :lol:
Both rads is, of course, full butt.

You'll need to find a sense of humour to get anywhere building these into anything far from the Honda specs.
You''ll also find a few references to CBR600 single rads on this forum, if you search.

And in addition an uprated oil cooler (or additional ones) can help.

Consider also the fans- only one side rad has a fan- it's possible to uprate that as well.
