Dear Billet-cool!   

I recently bought a 2000 Buell X1 Lightning, and have done a couple of 
the most popular performance modifications to the exhaust and ignition 
systems. The bike is ridden through the heavy stop-and-go Silicon 
Valley commute a couple of times a week, (about 240 miles), and is used 
for some high-performance riding on the weekends. Because of the 
performance modifications and the traffic, I thought an oil cooler 
would be good insurance. The traditional air/oil coolers were bulky 
and did not have the clean OEM appearance, and also required the added 
complexity and weight of hoses, adapters, brackets and fasteners. I did 
a lot of research and came across your Billet oil cooler. The 
Billet-cool oil cooler looked clean, and with the powder coated body 
and polished fins, fit right in with the rest of the bike. It looks 
completely stock! The heat sink concept is elegantly simple, I 
thought, but does it really work? I was pleasantly surprised. After a 
long commute of over one hour and 60 miles of stop-and-go traffic, and 
occasional sprints to the 65 mph limit, I was able to comfortably grasp 
the oil filter without discomfort. Before the oil-cooler was 
installed, the oil filter was too hot to touch. I am impressed with 
the Billet-cool product, and would unconditionally recommend it to 
anyone looking for a clean oil-cooler for a Buell X1!
