You could do what the "Racers" do, and tape off parts of it to keep the oil warmer. ;)

As soon as I get my oil temperature gauge and bike working, I'll post the temps I get.

another problem with that oversized ford cooler is you are going to block off airflow that normally occurs to other parts of motor when the bike is moving;)

That Ford Oil Cooler might work great as a bug catcher too, but you'd have to ride fast enough to have them stick; otherwise, you're just another member of the "catch and release" program, and everytime you stop, they'll fly away. :woohoo:
