oil cooler pics up in gallery

I just posted a couple of pics of the EX400 (larger) oil cooler mounted on the bike. In truth it is a bit hard to see everything but, oh well...

I have also posted three new bike pics. I have decided to ditch some of the red accents I had been using and concentrate on the bike's own colours (black, dark blue, and silver/aluminium). The end result is much more subtle, kind of business-like...and I like it!!!!!!

cheers

It's a nice fit. You did you go with the pipe lengths? Did you just drop them down a bit, or did you have to shorten them? With your lower fairing you wouldn't see it anyway I guess.

If when you test it in the hot weather, it makes a difference, I may fit one as well.

Hi Shayne,

I didn't tamper with the pipe lengths (just bolted it on). However, as they have to arc downwards to mate up with the new lower mounting points, it effectively pulls the cooler forward, away from the fastening point at the top. A couple of short spacers would likely do the trick to remedy this. Of course, I settled on tie-wraps instead

Hey Mikstr, The bike looks great. How did you color the upper frame spar black?
