Since all our bikes are so new I do not think the hoses much matter unless they screw them up taking it apart. So I put my new ones from the kit in the tool box. The clamps they give you suck and since I have the factory crimp tools and extra new clamps I put the crimp style back on mine when I did it. I like the smooth ID of the clamp with no slots to cut into the rubber hose of the crimp style clamp.

Fan Assisted Oil Coller
I have a question about this new fan assisted oil cooler...How much bigger than the stock cooler, that came on the bike, is it ?
The reason I ask is because I want to put lower leg fairings on the bike and would like to know if they will fit without modifications, or if I'm going to have to do some cutting in order to accommodate the dimensions of the new cooler.

Hot Swap
I don't think it is quite that simple...The ultras are water cooled and I don't think they have an oil cooler because of that fact. If the new fan assisted oil cooler is a lot bigger then it is going to interfere with the new lower fairings.
Just trying to figure out if lower fairing will, in fact go on a special.
Any of you Ultra guys have an oil cooler ?

I'd stop at a dealer and measure the oil cooler and compare it to the size of the coolant pump system.......
