I bought the Jagg ten row cooler from the dealer in 2004 for my bagger as that is what they offered back then. It works great! The rub was when I wanted a chrome cover for it. After going in circles and being told there was no such animal I finally found a parts person that found the cover that would fit the bigger 10 row cooler. It is part number 63032-05. It is an old stock item,however my dealer still had two in stock. It is one of those "put it on with silicone" deals. I used 3M super heavy duty double stick tape instead and it worked for me.
What about a Jagg 10 row but block the fins until the temps get hot enough to need it? I don't think it is hot enough in the San Antonio area right now to need it but by once it changes it will be for months at a time. I am alittle unsure about the t'stat thing. I did a search and was reading others who had issues with them. What'cha think about this idea? Could go to a leatherer and get a cover made.
You could also buy the Jagg manual bypass valve (http://www.jagg.com/jagg%20files/jag...es/by-pass.htm) and open it when you need it. If you don't use some sort of regulator for keeping cold oil out of the cooler you will greatly extend the time it takes your oil to heat up, which will cause more oil contamination (water, gas, acids) and lower gas mileage. Air-cooled bikes take forever to warm up anyway, and running a cooler without a valve or t'stat makes the problem much worse.
We also have the HD oil cooler on a 02 Road King and it does a great job. It is a very nice kit with everything you need and should include the chrome cover. I see them from the sellers on e-bay all the time in the 250 range. The gasket service lit has all the gaskets you would need.
