00:00:13.759 welcome guys welcome back to this 00:00:15.98000:00:15.990 channel I'm dish and today we're going 00:00:18.50000:00:18.510 to be talking for your coolers now the 00:00:20.99000:00:21.000 standard oil cooler on the XJ 650 it's 00:00:24.32000:00:24.330 seen better days it's rusty it's 00:00:26.68900:00:26.699 massively massively mashed up all the 00:00:29.99000:00:30.000 hoses they're looking a bit nasty and 00:00:32.65000:00:32.660 yeah we're gonna sort all that out now 00:00:35.42000:00:35.430 rather than replacing it with the 00:00:36.74000:00:36.750 original we're gonna upgrade it we're 00:00:38.47900:00:38.489 gonna make it look a bit nicer we're 00:00:40.67000:00:40.680 gonna make it just all round a much 00:00:43.40000:00:43.410 better finish again something that 00:00:45.13900:00:45.149 actually draws your attention to it 00:00:47.15000:00:47.160 rather it just being there and being 00:00:49.25000:00:49.260 part of the bike and how we're gonna do 00:00:51.59000:00:51.600 that with this oil cooler of course now 00:00:53.99000:00:54.000 for the keen eyed viewers you can 00:00:55.72900:00:55.739 probably see if there is a n fittings on 00:00:58.25000:00:58.260 this if you know eight n fittings are 00:01:00.22900:01:00.239 they're not very common on bikes they're 00:01:01.72900:01:01.739 more of a car automotive 00:01:03.64000:01:03.650 high-performance thing and I have always 00:01:06.71000:01:06.720 wondered why you don't see them on bikes 00:01:08.78000:01:08.790 they are really good for high pressure 00:01:10.94000:01:10.950 oil fuel all that stuff they look good 00:01:14.45000:01:14.460 they're really easy to install and the 00:01:16.42900:01:16.439 pots modular which means you can make 00:01:18.59000:01:18.600 them as long as you're short pretty much 00:01:20.96000:01:20.970 there's a lot of accessories out there 00:01:22.73000:01:22.740 for them now if you don't know a lot 00:01:24.20000:01:24.210 about look at these 00:01:27.84000:01:27.850 [Music] 00:01:31.67000:01:31.680 this is an aien six ninety degree 00:01:34.77000:01:34.780 fitting and this is the oil hose to go 00:01:37.17000:01:37.180 along with it these pots were kindly 00:01:39.14900:01:39.159 supplied by Advocaat motorsport he sell 00:01:41.37000:01:41.380 all these fittings in different styles 00:01:43.17000:01:43.180 different angles length sizes everything 00:01:45.77900:01:45.789 go check out his website he even offers 00:01:48.33000:01:48.340 a pickup service if you don't want to do 00:01:49.83000:01:49.840 yourself and that there is something you 00:01:51.33000:01:51.340 don't see in the industry 00:01:53.27900:01:53.289 so I'll link down below go check em out 00:01:54.77900:01:54.789 and yeah let's carry on so you probably 00:01:57.35900:01:57.369 wondering how we're gonna get this does 00:01:59.42900:01:59.439 fit instead of this now there is some 00:02:03.12000:02:03.130 modification required to this unit it 00:02:06.80900:02:06.819 doesn't have any bracketry because this 00:02:08.49000:02:08.500 is actually for a car it's got bracketry 00:02:10.94900:02:10.959 here but this is not ideal so what we're 00:02:14.03900:02:14.049 gonna be doing actually taking these off 00:02:15.50900:02:15.519 and cutting them out if you look at this 00:02:17.33900:02:17.349 one you've got a mount here which spits 00:02:19.62000:02:19.630 into the frame and a pin goes through 00:02:21.62000:02:21.630 holding it in place 00:02:23.00900:02:23.019 we've also got these brackets down here 00:02:24.72000:02:24.730 for now I'm gonna be working on this 00:02:26.33900:02:26.349 section right here and welding it on top 00:02:28.53000:02:28.540 of that one if you actually look at 00:02:29.88000:02:29.890 these side-by-side there isn't actually 00:02:31.25900:02:31.269 a fat lot difference in them this looks 00:02:33.69000:02:33.700 bigger than this but actually it's only 00:02:35.52000:02:35.530 ever so slightly more thicker but the 00:02:38.28000:02:38.290 actual width of it they are near enough 00:02:40.11000:02:40.120 identical it's just the actual brackets 00:02:42.56900:02:42.579 on the side that gives it the bulk so 00:02:44.55000:02:44.560 once they're off this is gonna look 00:02:46.53000:02:46.540 sweet so for now we're gonna get this 00:02:48.80900:02:48.819 section fitted and we will worry about 00:02:50.43000:02:50.440 this end a bit later on 00:02:53.25000:02:53.26000:03:11.23000:03:11.24000:03:40.72000:03:40.73000:04:01.32000:04:01.330 so that is the oil cooler side sorted 00:04:05.44000:04:05.450 ready for welding as you saw I left 00:04:07.47900:04:07.489 little notches on so I know which 00:04:08.94900:04:08.959 orientation it has to be and where it 00:04:10.72000:04:10.730 needs to be mounted it's going to look 00:04:12.49000:04:12.500 so cool but these aren't the only parts 00:04:14.53000:04:14.540 that need welding the oil filter housing 00:04:16.59900:04:16.609 sandwich plate whatever the part is 00:04:18.61000:04:18.620 called this piece right here these have 00:04:21.25000:04:21.260 these nasty lines on these aren't any 00:04:24.04000:04:24.050 good for the setup that we need because 00:04:25.54000:04:25.550 they're not aan fittings what we need to 00:04:27.76000:04:27.770 do now is take off these hard lines and 00:04:29.68000:04:29.690 install these these are a N weld on 00:04:32.20000:04:32.210 fittings making the complete unit 00:04:34.83000:04:34.840 compatible but yeah this thing is real 00:04:38.92000:04:38.930 gritty and dirty and horrible and 00:04:41.14000:04:41.150 obviously doesn't see the bike so this 00:04:43.06000:04:43.070 needs a good cleaning up so let's head 00:04:45.04000:04:45.050 over and go and see Matt at Rushworth 00:04:46.33000:04:46.340 performance who can help us out with the 00:04:47.86000:04:47.870 welding and get these put on nice and 00:04:50.02000:04:50.030 properly 00:04:51.14000:04:51.15000:05:11.49000:05:11.50000:05:50.49900:05:50.509 so the actual oil cooler core is now 00:05:53.27000:05:53.280 fitted and I'm really happy with how 00:05:55.27900:05:55.289 that's sitting since filming that 00:05:57.11000:05:57.120 section I've actually been away working 00:05:58.55000:05:58.560 and in that time Matt has been busy 00:06:00.58900:06:00.599 welding the rest of the Parts I need 00:06:03.32000:06:03.330 ie the actual sandwich plate so yeah 00:06:05.92900:06:05.939 that is literally all the fabrication 00:06:07.70000:06:07.710 side of it done it's now just a simple 00:06:09.67900:06:09.689 case of fitting the lines getting them 00:06:11.33000:06:11.340 cut to length getting them pushed onto 00:06:13.04000:06:13.050 the fittings making it one complete unit 00:06:15.32000:06:15.330 so yeah let's get this part fitted 00:06:19.24000:06:19.25000:06:46.17000:06:46.18000:07:05.37000:07:05.38000:07:41.45000:07:41.46000:07:53.16000:07:53.170 so that's the lines all made up and they 00:07:55.99000:07:56.000 look really cool 00:07:57.28000:07:57.290 I will say I did actually have to change 00:07:59.53000:07:59.540 the fittings a different angle just 00:08:01.45000:08:01.460 because I wouldn't work with our setup 00:08:03.07000:08:03.080 it's one of those things that you kind 00:08:04.57000:08:04.580 of don't know until you get there but 00:08:06.28000:08:06.290 hey but Tommy he really looked after me 00:08:08.77000:08:08.780 he got me all sorted up and got me these 00:08:10.36000:08:10.370 new fittings straight away so so yeah 00:08:13.51000:08:13.520 it's literally just a case of getting 00:08:15.22000:08:15.230 this screwed up and put on the bike he 00:08:17.32000:08:17.330 also supplied me with this little 00:08:18.64000:08:18.650 bracket to tie them together to keep 00:08:20.29000:08:20.300 them all tucked up and neat and well 00:08:22.27000:08:22.280 away from the front wheel so I can't 00:08:23.98000:08:23.990 wait any longer I want to see how these 00:08:25.39000:08:25.400 look on the bike I want to get this 00:08:26.95000:08:26.960 fitted 00:08:28.57000:08:28.58000:09:09.56000:09:09.570 so what do you think it is much much 00:09:13.47000:09:13.480 better than this ratty old thing let me 00:09:17.10000:09:17.110 know down below what you think let me 00:09:18.69000:09:18.700 know if this is something you're 00:09:20.67000:09:20.680 interested in doing to your boy I will 00:09:22.50000:09:22.510 sign out I don't know how this is gonna 00:09:24.00000:09:24.010 fit with the exhaust and I can't fit the 00:09:25.59000:09:25.600 exhaust in the current position that the 00:09:27.78000:09:27.790 bikes in so I've left the lines a little 00:09:29.70000:09:29.710 bit long just so it can maneuver away 00:09:32.10000:09:32.110 from the exhaust and not have any issues 00:09:33.87000:09:33.880 there but yeah I think it looks 00:09:36.00000:09:36.010 fantastic 00:09:36.90000:09:36.910 I think the bike is yeah I'm going to 00:09:40.11000:09:40.120 say every single episode it's getting 00:09:41.67000:09:41.680 there and this is just one part of many 00:09:43.47000:09:43.480 that is gonna be transforming on this 00:09:45.09000:09:45.100 bike if you want to get up-to-date with 00:09:46.89000:09:46.900 this build if you want
