Your obviously looking for max cooling so i rec you do what i did which was install an ultracool oil cooler with twin thermostatically controlled cooling fans to cool oil & motor along with wards cooling fans that target cooling heads and upper cyls both at same time.
That resulted in a 50deg f reduction in oil temp in summer heat right off the bat resulting in multiple improvements in engine perf & riding comfort too.
And keep in mid its also parts of the oils job to remove heat / cool an air cooled bike motor too so when i installed the 2 cooling system mods on my bike that reduced oil temp 50deg f in summer heat that at the same time reduce engine temp x-amount too.
BTW,do not install an oil cooler without elec cooling fans because when you need an oil cooler most like when sitting in traffic & or when at slow road speed an oil cooler with no cooling fans is just about useless due to lack of cool airflow thru the cooler.
See links pasted below for details on the 2 cooling mods i installed on my HD & rec that when working collectively together as a hvy dty cooling team will get the job done.
BTW,many guys here will chime in saying these cooling mods arent needed & or wont be beneficial in summer heat on an air cooled HD.
But the problem with that is they have in fact never tried the same 2 cooling mods so their opinon it's all but useless because they have no experience doing it in the 1st place so ignore if you see negative comments posted on these 2 cooling mods from guys that never tried both of them at same time on their bikes like i did.
Good luck.

I believe this is exactly what I am looking for ,
For the ward's fan it is Easy choice ( one model fits all ) , but for the ultracool I couldn't find-out which model fits best my SPORSTER XL1200C !
Either they have different name for the sportster or they don't have something particular for !
In any case I sent them an email
And I will see what is their reply .
All the best

I don't know if my bike doesn't require this oil cooling or if I should seek something fabricated for my bike!

Great idea and most like works as said but the price. What is with manufactures today? Everything for a Harley is $400-$500 dollars regaurdless of what it is. Harley themselves never got the hint and still stings its customers. The import bikes are more reliable and cost less and yet we potato potato potato sheep keep bleeting and shelling out the big bucks. I recently priced a true dual conversion kit that consisted of a straight piece of exhaust pipe, a manifold gasket and a 8 inch pipe bent into a "j" Yup that will be $250 please. Sorry for the rant but this $hit sucks.
