Does anyone know of a oil cooler kit for a 71 CB500. Texas gets quite hot!

You can get a sandwich adapter plate that goes between the oil filter housing and the engine case and route feed and return lines to whatever cooler you care to use.  I have an old Lockhart cooler on my 400f that works quite well, actually.   Something like this, and use a little imagination:
