Where did everybody go? There hasn't been a lot of traffic here lately. Well I've got a question about oil coolers. I'd like to hear about the experiences of anybody who has one. I'll be moving to the panhandle of Florida when I get back from Afghanistan and I'm concerned about the summer heat. I'm looking at getting the HD one, which if I get it from Zanotti's is about the same price as a lot of others I've seen and a lot cheaper then one like the oil bud. I guess I'm mostly concerned with how well they work and any problems associated. Of course I'll be using synthetic oil to also help with the heat.

Woohooo passing light kit and engine guard are now on (first round of eye candy)...well sort of. Damn 'instructions', doesnt really explain how to tie into existing headlight system. I assume directly behind the fork cover where there is a vacant female with the wire heading in....need to hit home depot to get the connector and hopefully that is right.
But looking groovy...starting to look like a 'bad copper' now
Next on the list, ordering a 9.5" metal rear fender that drops a couple inches below axle and looks more beefy than stock....and yes I finally found one...special order for the same price to their other sizes. Good thing I called Then off to the chop man and match the heritage front.... and maybe strech a couple more inches...depending what it looks like at initial fit.
I LOVE THE LO!!!!
O also...the girlfriend walked into the garage last night while piecing. She asked 'what's wrong with they way it looked before?'. I said to her she will never understand...plus don't worry we are still going to Cancun this winter:P

As far as synthetic goes, that's what I run in all my bikes and I have never had any issues. I love the stuff!
