Why not put a cover (protector) on it ? http://www.samurider.com/?p=13491
It would look like a small water cooled radiator.
Because that only draws even more attention to something that is already considered an eyesore by the very premise of this thread?
Just thinking out loud.
It's kinda like the thread where someone asked if anyone had moved the horns to a more subtle location, and someone suggested chrome trim rings instead. The OP is talking about removing the oil cooler or possibly swapping in a smaller cooler in a different location. Not adding more "bling" to it and squaring it off even further, thus making it even more aesthetically awkward.
I'm still leaning towards the curved one, personally, but that sportster cooler could be a viable option for some one else looking to minimize the look. I would look for an aftermarket equivalent through. Surely if it is a "Genuine Harley" part than the price will have at least doubled. Hahaha
Don't take my opinions too seriously though. After all, I don't think top cases, highway pegs, or full fairings belong anywhere near this bike. I'd rather see it more stripped down and streamlined. To each their own.
Until next time radio-land listeners, REMEMBER:
Rubber side down, and ENJOY THE RIDE!!!!
