Maybe you are right, but there is about 5-10mm space between fan and radiator core... so this isn't completly dead area...
Radiator is much bigger than oem kawasaki, so it should be OK. There is always possibility for change in the future either

My car has adequate braking power with Sierra's ventilated 240 mm disks. The brakes didn't begin to fade even on a track. Even Caterham CSR has 10" disks. I suspect anything above that is just extra weight, don't overdo it!

I hope that with 278mm discs I'll get good F/R brake balance (I have all-disc setup). I didn't have whole Sierra, so... I bought them long time ago. I'll use them and see how it works...
