Default Extra Oil for the Oil Cooler

After you have installed your Oil Cooler and ran the bike to check for leaks and then subsequently took the bike out on the road to get the oil temp up to operating level, when you get back to your garage, have you added oil to compensate for the Oil Cooler now and brought the oil level back to the full line on your dip stick?

On an oil change I short fill and add to the stick regardless of whether or not I have an oil cooler. And when I installed my cooler I did an oil change.
