oil cooler for 1100gl?

The oil cooler set up is basically the same for all the 8V engines – plain bearing 650 excluded. I built an adaptor and installed an Earl’s cooler on my 850. What kind of information are you interested in?
 
I have only worked with the 16v engines which have the oil galleries for the coolers. I guess these motors are like the 750s and need the filter cover drilled and modified for oil lines?
I dude asked me if he could install a cooler on his bike and I said I would look into it.
 
It’s easier to just purchase an adaptor, or make one from scratch, as opposed to trying to modify the stock oil pressure sensor cover. Trust me, I tried.

BassCliff has a tutorial sheet I put together on how to make your own adaptor. If you don’t want to go though the exercise, there is a guy named Terry (from Oz) that sells prebuilt adaptors for about $100 USD. Search the archives here for lots more info on the subject or drop me a PM if I can be of any help.

Good luck.
 
Yeh, know about Terry.

Don't want to run the lines back behind the engine. Looking for the route from the filter cover.
 
I don't think it can be done. Even Yoshimura from back in the day picked up the oil from the main galley feed under the oil pressure switch.

The 8v engines have a different oiling system, the oil coolers lines can not be plumbed like a 16V engine.

I?ve seen 8V engines using the filter cover as the oil takeoff, but the return needs to go back in at the back of the engine.
