I don't think it will fit without modification, on my 03 it has two bolt attachments at the rear that goes through the panel sides and sub frame and not from underneath. What do you think?

If it wont fit then not sure about bodging it. Missed out hey

Can you take a pic from the underneath just to make sure.?

So i fitted an Oil cooler, as the bike only has 600mm of oil it and as the bike was being prepped for a desert race i was worried about overheating.... ? all the Baja boys in the states fit these and they rate them as being fantastic....

Swapping over the Stator was easy.

The only issue i had was the Banjo bolt which is a bespoke bolt with a check valve in it, I broke, a little heavy handed. I ordered a couple more from the states and they arrived today. I will give the bike a thrashing this weekend, with an extra 50% oil it should run cooler and maybe I could stretch the service intervals to suit the rally with out worrying too much.

600ml? I think you'll find it's 1200ml as standard ...... still not a lot I grant you

Sorry you are correct, it's the cooler that holds 600 mm then.
