How big of an oil cooler are you looking at?  We have ran a 16 row 115mm wide oil cooler on a 696 with no problem.  That is roughly a 6"x5"x2" of actual cooler core.  The standard S2R ducati oil cooler core is roughly half the effective cooling area of the cooler we tried.

Those exhaust flanges are beautiful. They are so well made compared to the stockers. You could make a batch that would fit the stock headers and sell them, no worries.

Except how do you put them on an existing exhaust? You couldn't get them on.

I take it those header pipes have a flair of some sort @ the head for that flange to push on. But with these the header pipes are seperate before the collector are they not? Take the collector off then you could slide the old flange off and the new one one?

Yes those are a special design that get made on to the actual tubes.   

I was thinking about making a few sets that work just like the stockers, but look much better. Possibly with fins to look more old school also.
