Hi everyone,

I'm planning to change all the oil lines to aftermarket ones to get rid of those awful metal lines and have them all stainless. Will that affect anything? Has anyone tried this?

Second question: I'm planning to replace the oil cooler with this:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Russell-Heat-Sink-Transmission-Cooler-651470-/330631314972?_trksid=p5197.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D5%26po%3D LVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D3805112418954797120#ht_142 5wt_1029

will this suffice in terms of normal bike functioning? I do a lot of traffic riding and the temperature can get quite hot and so I do not want to fry my bike with an insufficient cooler.

Can anyone please help me?

Many Thanks!!

Try finding an ATV type, fan/assisted oil cooler. They are larger and proven to work very well in all conditions.
