Bump on the oil cooler.  I have a Kerker exhaust on mine too and that cooler you're looks great.

That is a Honda cooler off of a 1982/83 CB650 Nighthawk. I had to make a bracket and the custom lines were done by Cline in Greenville - a specialty hose company for $25. The cooler adapter is one of Terry's billet units with a chrome K&N. Not a drop - I ran an automotive transmission cooler for 1,000 miles, but kept having oil seep in the hose clamp areas. I could never get it tight enough to stop the drips and light seepage, so someone here suggested the Nighthawks had factory coolers. You'll need to get the earlier models since they have the barbed tubes. The later (1984) I think went to bolt-on. I have a 2nd one that I'm keeping, but they regulary sell for $30~40 bucks on eBay.

Here is a closer pic to help you make your own brackets - There is a lot more clearance between the pipes and the cooler lines than looks it here. I've got 1.5" or more.
