Anybody running two? I'm thinking i'm going to try and mount two billet coolers on my perimeter so they look like rads. One will be for the head and the other will go to the tranny

I'm going to give you my perspective on this since I have gone down this road.

I have a 143cc out of stock honda cases built up to the max with a kitaco ultra clutch. I ran a thailand-based, high quality oil cooler at the head and an automotive power steering cooler from the bottom.

Running it this way, in temperatures lower than 60 degrees was overcooling the oil to the point where the engine never properly warmed up. Its a great idea to run them in a full built engine that sees 7K and higher constantly in warm weather...like 80+. But anything less it is too much and may actually be bad for the motor.

Again...I ran 2 for about a year. Last week, I took the second one off because I didn't like the fact that it would over cool in the colder riding months and cooler evening rides I like to take in the DC area.
