I installed a Jagg slim oil cooler on the Breakout today using Fragola AN-06 connectors, Earls compression connectors and polyester braided hose.
Whadya think? I started to get the 10 row but I like the slim 6 row.
Looks great! I went with the 10-row & fan, but I used the regular hoses. I also made extenders to move the radiator another inch or so away from the frame. I had looked at compression fittings originally, but passed because they add a lot more complexity to the install - lots more stuff to break or leak for no real gain except looks. I wished that Jagg offered the option of AN connections.
Way better than the HD cooler. Just installed one on my friends 2016 Heritage. Don't like the hose 1/4" from the cylinder and too many beds in the hoses.
Opinions on how well it will survive an impact from a stone?
Significantly better than average. Maybe a bent fin at worst, but it's not going to damage it. Any idea how much of a beating the average radiator in a car takes every day? I would not let that type of concern sway me from an install decision.
Nice DIY job!
Personally, however, I don't like adding more hoses and connectors to my bike that could leak, break or potentially cause me more headaches. I'm not a fan of added bulk, either...

I didn't add anymore hose than Jagg supplied. Just 2 short pieces. AN connectors seal well (there's only 2) it's just the AN to pipe compression fitting that is probably not the best but time will tell.
I didn't like the idea of using worm clamps.
Jagg shows cutting off the hose nipples and drilling/tapping the oil cooler and I could always do that if needed.

What a clean install, exactly what I am looking for. I need it in deep South Texas. What was the Jagg part number and can you give me a little more detail on the fittings?
