Speed Week at Bonneville (near Wendover) is August 10-16 and the World Finals are October 1-4 in 2013. I'd love to see Speed Week.

The riding weather is excellent in August.

I wouldn't want to ride down there in October.

I meant to say that the BRP is looking good as well! Is the cooler doing a good job at keeping the temps down?

Thank you, Stew.

Yes, I am very pleased to report my oil cooler is working superbly! My engine oil temperatures are much lower, and I can ride the bike harder, for longer periods of time, without overheating the engine. After I stop, oil temperatures drop rapidly as the cooler radiates heat from the oil in the reservoir and external oil lines. When I resume riding, the cooler, external oil mixes with the oil in the engine, and greatly reduces overall oil temperatures.

I'm very happy I installed my Spud Oil Cooler. 8)
