Engine Guard Oil Cooler Installed
« on: February 21, 2009, 07:30:59 AM »

Installed a engine guard  oil cooler to my 09SERG in series with the HD premium oil cooler, oil tank temps have dropped 15* at the tank so can only guess that the engine is now cooler, feels like it anyway. All stock motor with only the full sac 2.25" baffles. also cleaned up that ugly hose running across the chrome regulator. No drop in oil pressure and the engine runs much quieter. The engine guard gets real hot and I would no suggest this to those that run lowers. Very happy with the install.  Doc

Total cost about $25.00 Would have liked to use steel but brass is all I could find local will change the silver worm clamps for some black ones I have had to order.  Total time about 2 hrs, the longest time was cleaning out the engine guard after drilling and tapping.  Doc

Does this change the amount of oil needed for an oil change?

The plus side to this mod is it adds a extra qt. of oil to the oil system. Bike now holds 4 1/2 qts.   Doc

Very nice and simple idea... 

Does anyone have a fair idea of how the clear-coat/paint on the lowers of my cuse2 would stand up to the 250-to-300 degree temps of the oil, being dissipated from the engine guard?

Thanks...
