Oil Cooler Worth Fitting?

My yx125 engine runs quite hot so i was wondering if the addition of a oil cooler would make much of a difference?, also are there any brands of oil cooler to avoid?

Re: Oil Cooler Worth Fitting?

It wont hurt to get one, if you get the cheaper CNC ones blow through one end to make sure there isn't any resistance as the sealant used tends to block the holes up a bit. I cleaned the sealant out of mine and made gaskets instead and it has much better flow now
