Yes and yes. Oil bud and FBI chin spoiler does fit. I trimmed alittle off the left/lower side of spoiler for oil line clearance. Oil bud works without air flow and is totally hidden!...........good luck.

Oil must be at least 212 degrees to burn off condensates. Keeping the temp below that does more harm than good. I f your temp maxes out at 220-230 after a long hot ride, there is no need for a cooler on your 07. I have an 07 Electra Glide, and even during the hottest summer weather here in Florida, my highest temp was 230.

And who told you that? Or where did you read that? Or how did you figure that out for yourself?
Regardless of how you answer any of those questions - they're all wrong!
Condensates will burn off at any temperature although quicker at higher temps.

9 out of 10 air cooled bikes on the road DON'T have an oil cooler, if it was that big of a problem then don't you think more would have them? Use a good synthetic oil and don't worry about it. JMO
