Oil Cooler Guard

The oil cooler of the K1600 GT, GTL, Bagger and Grand America is well positioned for the onrushing air stream, unfortunately, the result of this is that anything carried by this stream finds its way into the cooler. Stones, insects and grime fill up the delicate fins of the cooler and cannot be removed without extensive labor, and usually the cooler fins bend and never look the same again.

This cooler guard uses a finely meshed grill that ensures the cooling properties remain unaffected. The size of the opening between the wires is 5mm square (3/16") and the grill is precision welded to the steel fame at several points. The entire assembly is powder coated and it will resist chips and remain in great conditions for many thousands of miles.

Some facts:

Optimal protection with a well styled appearance
Effective at protecting the oil cooler from damage
Rigid, powder coated steel frame with welded steel screen, fits perfectly
Anti vibration mounting points
No modifications of any kind are needed to install
Easy installation, attaches to existing mounting points
Complete with all needed hardware and detailed instructions

This product provides the functional protection needed for the oil cooler (I agree with others that of all manufacturers, BMW seems like the one that would have thought of this). In my opinion, it also adds to the overall "look" of the bike in a subtle way. Very easy to install. Impressive engineering and quality. Well worth the investment.

A great product! The install is straight forward only taking minutes, fast shipping.

Looks great on the K1600GTL

A great product! The install is straight forward really only taking minutes. The oil cooler guard affords complete protection for the factory oil cooler and in my opinion enhances the appearance of the bike.

I agree with Kenneth

This grill is fantastic, mounts in a few minutes and the fit is perfect. You don\'t things can get in there and cause damage, take a closer look. Since I can\'t yell \"shields up\" and get any results, this will provide your oil cooler some much needed protection

Why Didn't BMW think of this?

A common problem with so many 'water and oil cooled' bikes is that there was 'No Protection' for the 'Thin Waffer like' radiators. No matter where you ride when it begins to get warm out you can see on your 'windscreen' (if you have one the amount of 'bugs' you kill. Before this on my 05 K1200GT, I couldn't believe that BMW didn't use something to protect the radiator. I simply went out and got some 'Screen Mesh' and covered it myself. Did the same with my Suzuki GS650F. My 'Run & Fun' Bike! With my K1600GTL, BMW has taken care of the radiator but not the 'oil cooler'. Why Not? Ask them. Fortunately Wunderlich does them 'one better' and now has a well designed and Good Looking Shield to take care of the problem! Installing it took about '20 minutes' and it 'looks good' as do it work as advertised. I'd order one for your GT or GTL 'Right Away'! Caution! If you have some 'bugs' of stones already stuck in the cooler, DON'T try to use a 'screwdriver or the like to remove them. Buy some 'Spray Air'. It works better and is safer for the 'oil cooler'! This isn't a 'should get'. It's a Must Get'
