you might want to consider making one that is 'switchable'-
I have done this on my Dakar- it can run 'standard' or I can shut off the return line to the header tank and open the feed through the oil cooler depending on temperature. On trails, loaded up and working hard and at slow speed 9in traffic) , I find my oil got very hot as in 110C.
I have since replaced my old radiator but left the oil cooler system in- weighs very little-
BTW if you're looking for an oil cooler, I have one in vgc from a BMW 850 FS
I guess, depending on yout point of view, beklt and braces system is good to have - some might see this as too complex or unnecessary weight.
Horses for courses!
