Oil Cooler?
 
I had been pondering if it would be possible/practical to add an oil cooler to the GZ250 to keep her running cooler. when I had the clutch cover off the side of my engine I noticed a plug and thought that it would be a good place to tap a hole for an oil cooler. But not having adequate information on where to route the return for the oil cooler not to mention considering whether or not I would be starving some part of the engine of oil by adding the cooler. I saw this

and they had tapped the supply for the oil cooler right where I would have. I'll look at the service manual when I have time. I thought I'd throw this idea out to see if anyone else had any thoughts.

EDIT: sorry for the annoyingly huge pic. hope this one is better.

Why should he worry about patrick seeing this, yes he is using the now infamous "350cc" bike as an example but not for the same purpose, and who the hell messed up this thread and made it ten miles wide.

Just had a real good look at this larger pic. Did anyone notice the front portion of the rear fender stops way to soon ?

How much is one of these? I think I'm going to buy one just so I can be the first to turn my GZ into a 350.

You still won't be the first to turn your GZ into a 350, you will just have another bike in your garage, a cheaply made chinese bike. And on top of that it is basically the same price as a GZ.
