Katana Oil cooler width


Recommended Posts

Posted

I need to know what is the max width of an oilcooler which can be fitted between a Katana fairing. Can anyone measure or know this?

The cooler I have fitted is 330mm wide and it fits into the little lower faring panel exactly ( with no room to spare)

if you wanted a taller cooler for an oil boiler engine in there ( shudder) you could go to 330mm width and it would still fit.

I dunno where my text went above, but it was saying that I used a very similar oil cooler but it sat about 3 or 4mm further forward and I had to trim the very ends of the cooler a little where the side panels wrap around.

Yeah mine is tight. It just fitted and literally no more. As a precaution I lined the inside of the side panel and the ends of the cooler with a thin sticky back high density foam. Just to avoid any platic to metal vibration.

Looks good @Ash. What hose connectors are you using on that cooler? 

I've fitted a B12 one as well now, but still using the stock oil lines which are actually a bit too short.

Hi guys im new here and i have an earls cooler fitted to my 1260 kat and it appears to be deeper than oem and is very efficiant and looks pretty trick to boot.

Hi @Swampy, Earls coolers are indeed a bit deeper, but fit nicely. 

Here's a picture of the B12 coolers i've fitted now. Still need to figure out some lower support for it though.
