Easy oil cooler

I believe you have to buy an adapter that bolts on to your crank case. The lines then run to your cooling unit. These adapters can be pricey unless you find ebay hand me downs. I am working on the same project with my bike. Good luck.

there is 2 types you can mod your clutch covers which is what 98 dose or you can do the big bear oil cooler adapter off of a 95's? big bear 350 then run your lines either way its about 100bucks give or take how you find the parts

if i take it off a big bear is it a direct bolt up to my block?

 

[duneracerweston]

Yep its a bolt on thats why I like it so much but 98 sells covers already moded so it would be a bolt on to so to speak

i now of a guy parting out a 350 big bear so that would be my best bet

Now there is something else as far as i know its only the 2 peice oilfilter housing off a bigbear that will work as a oil cooler but i maybe wrong but ive never tried it

 

[96yamahawarrior]

the easiest way seems to be the cooler off the big bear

Drilling the clutch cover isnt hard at all as long as you do a little reading before hand. Many people beleve its the better option also since it directs the cooled oil to the clutch
