Not a bad looking piece.Have you tried installing on buddies bikes,to see if they expierence the same kind of drop in temps???I would experiment with your buddies bikes first, before to start selling to the general public!!!! It has no resemblence to other oil coolers.No fins????

Pretty unique, I don't think I've seen one like that before. If you get consistent results across a range of bikes (especilly the 96") you might have something there...

Can you tell us what is on the inside of the cooler. Is it just strait through or is there passages that the oil goes back and forth through. 25* is a lot for a cooler that doesn't have fins.

I've got the Harley ten row, but think yours might be a lot better if it does what you say. If the whole thing was powder coated Black, I think it might look nicer. Chrome might work too?
