Default Oil cooler

So I have thermometer on the end of my dipstick in the oil tank. I have noticed when the oil temp is close to 200 degrees, the oil 60wt is of course thin due to the heat and the bike chatters. Solid lifters make up for a lot of that. However at 150 deg in the tank, when the days are cooler up here the bike is rather quiet. What can an oil cooler reasonably drop the oil temp down by? Who has a a good one and what does everyone think on this.
