Can anyone give me imformation concerning an oil cooler for the FZR400? Any idea who made them? Cost? What I would expect to pay?

you might be just as well finding an oil cooler from a sv 650 (or similar bike) and making some metal tabs to mount to existing bolts yourself. it's an idea i've thought of pursuing myself.

I guess I should have clarified myself a little better. I have one already, but know little about it. I wanted to put some information along with it in the WIKI and Gallery.

This is a photo of it:

no idea really.

looks like installs under the filter and mounts under the radiator though

Looks very much like a stock Yamaha one with replaced lines. They came stock on several models including some of the early non US fzr600s, here' a poor pic of the one that came on my 89 fzr600.



You will need to get that big hollow union nut thing you can see in the middle of mine to hold it on(part 7 below). If you using the older cartridge style filter the rest just bolts straight down onto the cooler housing, If your using the spin on filter type you will need to remove ~3mm so that the top of the nut doesn't protrude past the rest of the housing.

This is from an 88 fz600

surprising the plate is only like 45 bucks

Yeah, take a look at the oil cooler assembly - $250+

The oil cooler assembly I have is a bit smaller and seems very ridgid. I don't think you can bend the fins on what I have.

Looks like she'll hit eBay soon... any idea what I can get out of this thing?

20 shipped prolly


but I'll give you 25 shipped

Not sure what it'll fetch off Fleabay, but I'm sure you'll get your money's worth.. I think I just figured out my overheating issues that I had last year.. I rigged a switch to override the fan so I could turn it on when I wanted it to come on.. Well, now that I have bought a 2nd rad, I was looking in the garage today, and my old fan is still on there.. So why not take the fan off the back of the rad, flip it around and mount it to the front to blow the air back into the rad from the front..

I took off the old fan from the old rad, and brought it to the bike.. Low and behold, there's mounts on the front of the rad as well.. who knew? This thing'll bolt right on and I'll just wire it into the same circuit as the fan that's already on the rad..

That should eliminate ANY heating issues I did have...



Anyways, back on topic.. If I was allowed to spend any more on the bike, I'd snag that from you, but I'm not allowed..

Hey Darrin,

Use the Yamaha FZ600 oil cooler. They can be found on fleybay pretty cheap for the whole set up. This winter my 400 is being fitted with a CBR600F2 radiator and the FZ600 oil cooler. I will have custom oil hoses made so everything looks new and the legnths are right. My bike just gets hotter then hell when driving around town.
