As far as oil cooler draining I don't know. The connections are at the top so unless it siphons out I guess it still holds oil. I have never had my cooler off so IDK. Hopefully someone else can speak to this.
My thoughts exactly too ..change the oil and filter, put in 4 qts of oil, don't worry about it again* until you change it in 4,000 miles. Has worked for me for 69,000 miles so far.
* unless you are blowing white smoke or find drips/puddles of oil on the ground beneath the bike
