    Oil cooler screen?

    Looking for ideas on how to protect an oil cooler from being damaged by rocks, bugs etc. with a screen - has anyone made an oil cooler screen and what did you make it out of?

    My old Earl's cooler suffered a premature demise from a rock puncture last riding season - would be nice to prevent that from happening again.

    you would need some kind of frame to go around the cooler to hold the screen away from the cooler. probably about half an inch.

      as above but just get a sheet of ally the same size as the cooler, sit down with pencil and paper, make your own design, turn it into a cardboard stencil, trace it onto the plate and cut out using drill, jigsaw,dremmel, whatever it needs. then polish it and mount it. job done. the possibilities are endless!

        PJ, I have been making these radiator kits for the FZ's on the forum, let me know I can probably make something to fit I have the edging and the perforated metal. It can be cut to any size or shape.
