Oil coolers @ RPM...?

Well now,
Having a high mileage FJ that has developed carb problems and realizing that the cost of a carb rebuild vs. a new set of carburetors appears to be almost the same [if not less than a rebuild], nothing else to do but to purchase a new set. But from where? Okay, easy answer & that is RPM.

But then I see a photo of oil coolers on the FJ Forum that someone has discovered at RPM and lo and behold I notice that an entire Oil Cooler Kit has recently been listed on the RPM web site.
Well, since the bike will be down for a carb install... & the oil cooler is now available... might as well kill two birds with one stone, or better yet, I should say solve two problems at once and get the oil cooler as well.

Already having both oil pressure and oil temperature gauges installed I will certainly know if the new unit performs well. And although I hate to comment on any past or future debates (or step on any one's foot - aka dogma) if you are going to install only one or the other, go with the oil pressure gauge....
Where is my debit card...
Hello RPM.
Everyone: Ride carefully,
Mike Ramos.
