I've got a Milie one if that'll fit
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

It will but will need some new (longer) oil lines on one side - routing them can be a bit of a challenge.

Im having no luck finding a falc cooler, only Mille ones.
I sent a pm to RoosterNI as he recently broke his falc, and he was running a Mille system !
If my oil cooler cant be repaired then the Mille route it will have to be.
So Im thinking change tank,cooler, lines ?
Is this a potential nightmare ?
Would I be better off replacing the falc one if it cant be fixed ?
EDIT replacement genuine part is way way over a rch man's budget

Easiest thing might be to fit mille oil cooler and oil tank together. Makes the hose connection much easier
