I'm hoping a series of changes will bring mine in S.FL in local 25-35 w/stop & go down from 285 -289. Bought the H-D Premium Cooler; will change to Mobil 1 V-Twin Synth when I mount (mystery oil - probably std HD first oil change oil); received AF-XIEDs, but unhappy with wiring arrangement, so need to re-work those before I can "slap them on."

I did as RJSOriginal's No More Fried Thieghs - They really do help, even though they are smaller much more trimmed then other products (i.e. they don't look like mud flaps - thank you baby Jesus ). Cheers, Kevin.

I like the surface area of the oil bud but I don't know about having it under the bike like that I would worry about rocks or road debris and what is that sensor in the filter adapter ?

there really are no issues with the ultra oil cooler the leaking your talking about tj is they are cutting the oil lines a little short and not allowing for the motor when its at idle when the engine shakes the most. guys are are saying there having them brazed (welded with brazing rod) so there are no issues with the ultra cooler u just need to allow for the engine shake and they will be fine. the b motors dont shake so they can cut the oil lines alot shorter. and yes jagg is coming coming out with a fan assited cooler in about 1 month iwas actually thinking about buying a jagg or some sort of other oil cooler but iam sticking with my ultra cooler at this point. mine was leaking also i called robert he sent me out a new cooler and this time with a little research i found this is what the culprit was lines being to short and not allowing for engine movement. just my 2 cents.
