LOL. Is that an oil cooler or an air/water intercooler. Definetely makes it look "purposeful" at least.

Assuming oil due to the plumbing, but can't guarantee.

Cool, it's a late-70's Toyota Celica GT. I always wanted one of those back in the day!

Check out these tubular-style oil coolers for Victory motorcycles.

Some other approaches.

I understand Honda had issues controlling cylinder head temps and my removing the oil cooler would likely make things worse. Still, to me, it uglies up the bike. Has anyone tried this and lived to tell about it?Somehow one of my favorite films comes to mind.

There's a '14 DLX [url=http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/mcy/5942082582.html]for sale in Ontario that has a silver oil cooler. I'm not sure if it's more or less conspicuous.

What a beautiful bike! I suspect the owner sprayed the tank and side covers and did away with the pin striping. I notice, too, that RLETs have been installed. As they should be!
Wonder what the mirrors are?
RE: Oil cooler - Stichill - 01-07-2017
It has a number of subtle mods, doesn't it? I also noticed the turn signals...practically invisible but yet they look like they'd still give good signalling.

Stitch, I almost had a heart attack when I saw this was for sale in Ontario.
But the pictures revealed it was Ontario, California; not the Province of Ontario in Canada.
My 3 year quest continues.

We have seen that bike here before. I remeber commenting on putting stickers on the side covers. JUst not sure how to dig up the thread.
