Radiator Cap Relocation
I swapped a CB750 tank onto my GL1000, however, I overlooked the fact that the radiator cap now interferes with the bottom of the tank. I need to relocate it somewhere, possibly outside the frame tube. Would copper pipe fittings and some soldering do the trick, or will it not hold enough pressure?

Re: Radiator Cap Relocation
Old radiators are soldered copper and brass, also the pressure is much lower than water supply pressure, so you will be fine.
