Default Oil Cooler Relocation Kit

So i've come up with a pretty decent mount system to relocate the oil cooler on the front forks, underneath the headlight. How much, if at all, would people be willing to pay for a pre-fabbed kit to relocated their own oil coolers for their streetfighters?

Probably not very much, its fairly simple to make a mount. Others have just mounted it directly under the radiator using a bracket made from 2" Flat Iron. Nice idea though.

Thumbs down

Nice job hiding the hardware so others don't "copy" something that's already been done.

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound like a douche. What I was talking about in my post is going to be a professionally fabricated aluminum mount, which will be made for specific fork sizes. It will include everything needed to mount your oil cooler from your forks. I will be posting a very simple "how-to" for those who want to make their own, but want a cheap/easy solution like the one many others have made.

I realize many people have done this already, but no one has made a little "kit" to make it easier for those who don't have the time to go hunting around.

No need to be demeaning. That's all I was going for.

I know about the radiator mount (I had min like that for a little while), but I have had bad luck relocating the oil cooler so low to the ground and some guys I know (who live in warm areas), who've done the same, had problems with the oil cooler getting too hot, being that close to the radiator.
