Define "Cheap" ?

I have a TB oil cooler on my 108, it physically looks big but tucks up under the frame and shrouds real nice.

The Kitaco and DRATV coolers are tiny. I also vote TB.

Hit up Staggs, his cooler is almost identical to the Takegawa one and the price is good too. This cooler probably hold more oil volume as well.

yeah, more oil is always better. and i dont care what you say about that, i am right on that. unless that is something is overflowing, too full, or you dont want the extra weight.

i think i covered all your options there......

Actually your just dumb, more is not always better. It may have more volume but it does not have the same cooling capabilities as a radiator style oil cooler. Get the TB or kitaco.

but as long as the billet does its job right... my worry is that if i get a TB it will get smashed and such because i do some pretty tight trail riding. Im just worried about a tree or sumthin hitting the TB one. it just seems like the billet is a bit more solid IMO

im not waisting my time writing about how having extra oil is better for an engine for releability and long run use, but i will say that i know what i know.

i wish people would fully read my posts, cause i covered that.
