Coolant on radiator

Hi all

A bit of an update.
I got the lower radiator out:

And then repaired (fingers crossed):

Installed new radiator covers:

And installed back into the radiator assembly:

So as you can see in the last pic - the heat shield (highlighted in red) is gone, only leaving the backing (looks like a fabric weave).
I've purchased some aluminium foil which doesn't stick to this material at all.
I called one of the main Ducati dealer and he said this cant be purchased as a spare part. (it doesn't seem to have a part number either).
Any ideas on how to either 1) stick foil to this material - or 2) a replacement pad/material that you have used would be most helpful.

Thanks guys.
 
Wow! How many holes were in the radiator? It looks like you went for a spin in my old neighborhood in Baltimore. The heat shielding... search Ebay for "USA-Motorcycle-Fairing-Professional-Heat-Shield-Self-Adhesive-Sheet-Protector." It sells for around $12.00. It looks very similar to the shielding I keep in the shop... comes in handy.
