I want to relocate my oil filter during my next change for better cooling and less mess when changing. So far I have found a kit from DK Customs (kinda pricey) and Moore's Sensible Products (less costly).
Does anyone have experience with either, good or bad, and might there be other options that are available?
I have the DK Customs unit on my softail. Fine folks to deal with. Lot easier and cleaner on oil changes.
I don't notice much difference on temperatures.
DK customs. Build the Kit you want. Options of colour, finishes, hose type, fittings etc.
Easy no mess oil changes. Washable/Reusable oil filter. Oil temp is a lil cooler with the filter acting as a cooler when riding at speed. Bonus...they look cool too.
I have the Moore Sensible Products and his oil cooler setup.
Dan its a great guy to deal with, the products are top notch and his price is the best in the market.
His new adapter can be ordered with an oil temp sensor at the point where the oil enters the motor. With his setup, my oil temp at the motor run 185 on 100 degree days (215 degrees in the tank).. The absolute best thing I've done to keep the motor cool in Socal heat.
Not to mention, I no longer have a mess when I change the oil
