Oil Cooler for a 550
« on: October 04, 2014, 06:57:58 AM »
Sorry if this is in the wrong place but I would think this is the right area. I completed my 550/605 cruizinimage big bore kit. I have a stage 2 head work done by member Mreick and a 650 cam. The bike is pretty warm while riding in it's infancy of riding. In reality it is pretty hot. I was thinking an oil cooler would be best since the sleeves are machined to the thinnest it "should" be.

Does anyone has a set up for sale or willing to help me gather a list of parts that will work?

Thanks in advance!

Brent I didn't get anything. This site has been funny in regard to PMs for me since the server swap.

Not so fast Bill.  ::) I'm still a 750 guy who only dabbles with the middleweight! I was blowing through coolers like #$%* through a goose so I don't have much in the way of extras.

I'll send an email Tews19.
