They don't and apparently they don't need one. Most report that even in the hottest weather, oil temps are under 230 degrees - those that have installed temp gauges or monitored some how anyway...

I’ve installed the Harley Oil Cooler on my 2018 RGS and ive also installed the love jugs Minis. My Bike is a stage 4 running a Thundermac tuner. Thunder Mac has a great feature that will make your check engine light blink when your bike is overheating. I witnessed the light blinking myself one day while stuck in heavy traffic. Since installing the oil cooler and the love jugs, I’ve been in traffic equally as bad in hotter temperatures and I’ve yet to see the bike start to overheat. Definitely worth it in my opinion.

You may have missed the OP's original question. The Harley Oil cooler for your 18 RGS will not fit on a Twin cooled M8... On another note, I agree with lp... Mine feels cool as cucumber in just about every riding condition. I'm sure it's getting pretty warm sitting in traffic but the EITMS kicks in and the fans are running... No issues.
