got a question here....I have had an oil cooler on mine since maybe 1976 or so because back then I had to do a lot of city traffic and the machine used to get hot and the RPMs used to begin to pick up....oil thinning out, I'd think. My cooler has been mounted, since a good 100 thousand , is there a fitting reason I should remove it now, is it just overkill , or should I just let it sit out the rest of it's days mounted up there where it always was?
MUST the oil reach a certain temperature, or is this just a question of what temp it would "normally" reach in a motor without a coller mounted? I get a bit of white sludge sometimes, which I know is condensed water , but it goes away after a good ride, and I never worried about it...... I mean, I could do without the oil lines running up the side of the motor and such, no doubt....but unless there is a real good reason, I will most likely leave it there and continue to march. Interested in all ideas here...Thanks!
