Does anyone run one of these? If so, any issues?
I had one of those Kev - nice strong cooler, the only issue I had with it is that with the flange on top - whilst strong - also takes away the area where the fan (if it cuts in) takes air from (the standard cooler has two pop up flanges rather than one wide one). I sent mine back as they wouldn't modify it and I was concerned that on a hot day, if the fan cut in (and mine used to from time to time) it wouldn't be able to draw air.
I did ask them about making 2 smaller flanges, cutting the centre out, drilling circles across - none of which they would do - well they would but at a price - so I sent mine back as inappropriate and got one from Aaron Radiators in East London instead https://www.aaronradiator.co.uk/motorcycle/motorcycle-oil-coolers/suzuki-oil-cooler/suzuki-gsx-oil-cooler/ just as strong and followed the OEM design (and cheaper).
You could always contact Coolex (who make the cooler you are looking at on eBay) , as I think afterwards they did modify one for another orgster who had the same concerns.
Assuming you want this for your 1700 build, I guess having a cooling option is paramount.

I'll be running a bigger cooler for that, possibly even a separate head cooler, this is for my 1400, the oem cooler is looking a bit tired as are the oem oil pipes, probably best to replace the lot
Hi
Where do you get the oil cooler pipes, not seen new ones on Ebay

Good question, when I find out myself I'll let you know :onya:
Kanerdog got his fittings by torques UK.
Might be of help for you?
matt (kanerdog)made my pipes for the cooler he made
fantastic job
Thanks Blubber, I found the Torques web shop on EBay and they have a "Suzuki GSXR Standard 90 Degree Oil Cooler Take Off Adapter" and other GSXR fittings.
I guess they are the same, the centre measurements are listed so easy to check.
I messaged Torques a couple of weeks ago asking if they did oil line kits, they only supply the individual components though.

I thought that that was Kanerdog did, bought the parts and assembled the lines himself?
Could HEL not make you up a set to your spec?
