I have a 2006 Sportster 1200 with a trike kit. Does anyone know of an addition that I can do for cooling? It is air cooled & these Florida lights are ridiculously long. Every time that I'm sitting at a red light , I think-I've got an air cooled engine & I'm sitting still in the heat. I never liked liquid cooled engines but in Florida they are starting to make sense to me.

Add an oil cooler if you don't have one. That should keep it from getting too hot.

When I search Harley Davidson Trike , all that I get is the HD Trike site by HD!
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() P.S. Has anyone seen the HD price on Oil Coolers? You're talking $300! I think that for that I'll take my chances with the heat! ![]() |

Here ya go Irish....this one's only $400.00. Looks like a real nice setup, everything you need is included, and it would be a neat job when finished. Is a bit pricey.....but what isn't these days.
http://www.ultracoolfl.com/shop/oil-coolers/the-reefer/ Think an oil cooler is probably the way to go. Have read elsewhere that something like 70% of the cooling is done by the oil......a lot less of the cooling is accomplished by air passing through the cylinder fins. |
