EOT meter for OEM oil cooler

[dsinned_imp]

I never have a passenger or carry any gear with me, but I weigh plenty at nearly 260 lbs. I always avoid bad roads and am continuously scanning ahead for dips, bumps, ruts and potholes (as well as all cars). My last panic stop (thankfully, without incident) was about 15 years ago, but no guarantee that my next won't be tomorrow.

I still wonder why Honda did not see fit to provide an engine oil temperature gauge, or at least a warning light that comes on way before 340F (can this really be true?) For this reason, I still "recommend" the use of a Trail Tech oil cooler temperature sensor and handlebar mounted monitoring unit ($43), fan mod or not. I find it important to KNOW how high my oil temp is getting under adverse riding conditions such as in stop and go and/or when OAT is already almost unbearable for a leisurely ride. I feel this add on EOC temp monitoring capability is still a very worthwhile mod.
