oil coolers

I was wondering if anybody know about the oil cooler kits that come out of the oil filter cover on the klx??

I Currently have a really expensive and nice oil cooler mounted on my bike but it doesnt seem to get that much flow through it with the stock mounted oil lines.....

I have a friend with a yx motor and the exact same oil cooler and it DRAMATICALLY decrease his engine temperature.

So I was wondering if changing the lines to the oil filter location with an adapter would help??

Re: oil coolers

Expensive does not neccessarily equal nice.

How do you know how much of a temp drop you get. Or he gets?

Technically, it doesn't matter where you source the oil from in an effort to cool it. Hot oil is hot oil.

I am going to guess you have a "billet" oil cooler? If so, that's likely your problem. It's a pretty terrible way to cool the oil. But people buy them because they automatically think "billet" = awesome. You want as few seperate pieces as possible on a cooler to minimize leakage possibilities, but you want as much surface area as possible.
