I will post this in the sales and wanted section as well, but I’ll ask here in the airhead section as well because I know it’s where most of you lurk……

I’m fitting a big oil cooler to my GS special and I need a right hand crash bar to mount it onto. Specifically I need a crash bar with the mounting lugs (number 25 in the diagram). Does anyone have one that they would be willing to part with or know where I can buy one?

Which mudguard did you try it with?
Having a similar fitment issue (with a standard BMW cooler) using the kit to mount it on the frame crossbar. I'm keeping an eye out for a mudguard that'll give enough clearance - currently got a 'Nost' guard fitted, no dice according to Mikey.
I know it can be done with the right 'guard - plenty of pics on SWT et al.
An oversze cooler is a different matter of course...
 
Standard paralever GS high mudguard on mine. I’ve given up on trying to fit the cooler vertically to the frame down tube, there was just no way I could make it work.now intent on mounting it to the RH crash bar as usual
 
Does anyone happen to have a couple of the little steel bushes that fit in the oil cooler rubber dampers (number 18 in the diagram below). These are no longer available from BMW. I would normally just knock these up on my lathe but it’s in storage at present pending a house move. Any help appreciated 👍

If anyone has a bike with the oil cooler, please could you measure the bush (18) for me?
