    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Oil Cooler?

  • Thread starter Thread starter Anonymous

The Dennis Kirk kits are for a Harley. They come with rubber hose that will push onto hose barbs at the inlet and outlet on the cooler. As for mounting on a GS1100, there are two bolts next to the oil filter cover. (one on each side) I believe they have 1/2 inch NPT threads. You will have to purchase 90 degree fittings to attach the oil line there. I am going to try to mount the cooler where the horns bolt into the frame. I won't have the cooler in my hands until Wednesday. I will post the installation results by this weekend. As Pjackson advised in an earlier post, Earl's can also supply oil coolers. (with threaded fittings) They did not have a kit available for the GS1100. (At least not in the United States) They recommended purchasing the cooler first, figure out how you are going to mount it, then order the correct hose length with fittings. Unfortunately, they don't keep them in stock. If you have the time, this is not a bad option. You would wind up with a cleaner looking setup. (Steel braided lines, aluminum alloy fittings, etc.) You are probably looking at 4 weeks (and some serious coin) to get the job done. Earl's Part number is 20706. Dimesions are H 4" x L 8 1/4" x W 2" W/ -6 AN Male threads. They also offer them with NPT & BSP threads.
 
I usd the horn mounts and some aluminum flat stock along with stainless u bolts to make my mount for the 500cc honda junker oil cooler that i mounted on my gs1100e
