Title: Oilcooler started leaking
Post by: coffeefreak on Monday, 17 April 2017, 04:49 AM
Hi guys,

Need your honest opinions about a new oilcooler. What would you buy? A new HEL-cooler with lines? Heard that the temperatures of the oil are approximately 10 degrees C higher, then the standard cooler. (not that it would hurt the bike.....)

There are replacements that are built stronger. I used these guys in East London who were very good

havent had need for a new one. my mate has a radiator shop. they just measure the size, order it in, solder on required inlets/outlets. usually a choice of how many cores you want, 1 to 4 layers. i imagine most radiator shops could do similar.

I don't have the link any more but I found a German firm who were doing an aftermarket cooler that wasn't so high but it was slightly thicker to give the same cooling, I seriously considered fitting one of these just because it looked so much better than the original.
