400ex Pingry Oil Reservoir
#1
Ive seen it mentioned on some of your bike specs. What is it and how much/ where find it? Ive got a 440 kit on, havent ran it full out on the trail yet, but wondering if i need it and how much it helps. Anyone used to whitebrothers oil temp guage on bottle before and after to tell the difference? Let me know. Thanks.

I'd have to agree with you there. More oil will take longer to heat, which is good, but it also takes longer to cool, so it pretty much evens out. Bigger cooler makes it run cooler no matter what. One crazy idea I had was to find some small aluminum heatsinks (like the type you can put on P2/P3 and Athlon CPUs) and attach them to the oil res. It would greatly increase the surface area of the resivoir, effectively making it into a cooler as well! Don't know how much exactly it would help, though. Another good thing would be a heat shield between the header pipes and the rez.

my pingry rules. My bike has ran cooler ever since i use the mobile 1 15 50, and the 3 quart oil rez. I got mine for 275 at a local shop.
Only question i have is.... Will aftermarket headpipes have enough clearance to fit with the 3 quart oil rez, cuz my stock headers are pretty close, 1/2 inch away
ALSO the vented design of the strong tank acts as an oil cooler itself
