Sifton 'V' oil cooler
I've found no website other than those places that sell them. What is their web addy? The 14 forum threads on Sifton are mostly complaints about damage from mounting this particular unit. No photos of installed unit that I found anywhere. As to other threads on oil-coolers....I'm aware.

Yeah I hear ya but there seems to be a race for just a high post count for some.....I have a friend that had the Sifton V on his bike. It mounts on the frame down tubes above the VR. He had quality issues with the provided steal braided lines leaking and finally just took it off. Sorry, no pictures. I do know that he is running an HD cooler now with much better luck. Hope that this helps.

I was confused because of the description I read indicating this unit is mounted to the front fork tubes, ("the cooler clamps are for 1-1/4" (31.75 mm) front fork tubes diameter"), must be wrong. Mounted to front frame tubes makes better sense. Could not 'picture' how this would look mounted forward, side or behind the forks with oil-lines coming/going.....

As to running up post count, more ignorance on your part.

Amazing that you know about the installation job itself and sorry to burst your bubble but the rubber under the braiding was just plain dry rotted so..... they were destined to fail from the get go...I would tend to think that your attempt at troubleshooting an installation job from a message forum is a true definition of ignorance. If you dont have any helpful info for someone asking real advice then dont hammer on the guy. Like you did.
