I've seen this, and I like the idea a lot. Here's the one I've seen, sequential oil coolers:




it's a fine idea if you need it, but i don't..  my single cooler works great for my situation.  i just want to keep it equal -- but move it out of the way, sight-wise.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

No, it would be unnecessary in many/most situations. I believe that if you were running big bore, high compression, torque cams and/or advanced ignition on a fully-faired bike, then you'd have some heat issues, especially if you live down south. Seems like it would be overkill on anything less, when it would be just as cheap to simply get a slightly oversized oil cooler to replace the single existing cooler on many models that have been modded.

if you are overheating while moving at speed, i would say yes.. but if it is just in traffic, then put a couple small fans on the cooler.. works very well.

Thanks again to Triple J and Pompetta for the doner parts.  chug

Nice Job! I like that fact that it is not mounted to the valve cover.  For some reason, I like the engine separate from the engine.

Now you need to get a longer line so it doesnt go in-front of the belt (rather behind)..
I think I read somewhere that a stock oil line offa Hypermotard will do the trick...

Huh?  Huh?  Huh?

Sorry I guess that didn't make much sense now did it? 

What I meant to say is:
"I like the oil cooler mounted separate from the engine..."

Does that sound better?  Wink
