When I weighed the cost vs the impact I didn't deem it was worth it.

I saw that someone was going to be selling their oil cooler soon, as they are selling their R18 ...

Even at $600, it's a lot - especially for my Bagger. I would have jumped on the oil cooler, if I had plans on building another R18 Bobber though..

I saw that and I made him an offer but he is looking for more I guess.

In the perspective of the OPs bike I think that just about wort it.

If it were in the EU for that price it would come into the mountains.

The front fender?
Yes, I used a KlockWerks fender designed for an Indian Scout and fabricated my own mounts.
KlockWerks introduced their R18 fitment this year.

Thanks, that's what I suspected. I have their oil cooler. They're a bit challenging to deal with for US customers but I haven't seen parts from another vendor that compare.

Yeah, that project took me two years to complete. Partly due to COVID slowdowns and partly due to Hans.
Communicating using Google translate was part of the issue because Hans didn’t always get what I was trying to tell him. But you definitely need to a crazy measure of patience dealing with LMC but the products are pure artwork.
I sold that bike and I don’t think I’d have the patience to ever do another BMW.
