Has anyone ever used this oil cooler?

What are your thoughts on it's performance?
Thanks
I like the way it looks. Different from what you usually see. All good reviews from what Ive read so far. Never saw this setup until this morning on a different thread. Got my interest.

Nailed it!
There just isn't enough cooling area there. Plus being a round surface, I would thing the back side area is useless. Go with a Jagg cooler you will get a solid unit that actually works.
It would be interesting to see what that cooler drops the oil temperature to when going down the highway. It is certainly a passive device and would depend on its surface area to transfer the heat to the atmosphere. It will lower the oil temps but no idea how effective it would be. I've seen those coolers in black as well, which would blend in well with the frame down tubes and wouldn't interfere with lowers.
On my 08 Softail I installed Harley's oil cooler set up and it lowered the peak oil temps about 20 degrees F. That was measured at the oil tank and no idea what the actual oil temp would be at the heads, It wasn't a very big oil cooler, so it doesn't take much to affect the oil temps.
I have one on my 1991 FLHTP. The one I had the cooling tubes ran parallel to each other. The one pictured in the "Rocking it" post which was not available. It was better than not having anything to help bring down the oil temperature. Plus, it looks great on my ride,
