Abstract

A radiator device particularly adapted for use on off-road type vehicles includes a radiator body disposed rearwardly of the seat and spatially offset therefrom. The radiator body is enclosed about its periphery by a shroud that includes laterally extending, air-gathering wings. Fins forming part of a lattice-like grill are inclined in the direction of offset of the radiator body to direct the gathered air into the radiator body.
