introducing moi with a quick question
 

Hi people,

Just found this place while searching for info on a 748 so drinks on me if you've a virtual bar.

...bit of history, my 996 was stolen just on 9wks ago (pic attached) & my insurance cheque just arrived so I've got my eye on an exceptionally clean 748 to replace it. My dilema is that it's missing the 'V' piece from the fairing (dealer will supply) and there's no sign of an oil cooler :o

So, my question is do 748s have oil coolers fitted - seem to remember talking to a guy who said he'd put one on his but have no idea if he'd added it or swapped - heyulp!

nm.

I hav'nt seen a 748 without one and Ive seen a few . Has it had a bang some time braking the V piece and the oil cooler at the same time ? 4D

oil cooler
 

Only the 748 SP, SPS, and Rs have the oil cooler fitted as standard! It is possiable to retro fit one to a standard 748 tho.

Doesn't seem to have been dropped, had the plastics off in the shop and crawled all over it...the 'V' seems an odd thing not to replace if it has been thrown down the road too (pretty cheap).

To be honest, it only occured to me tonight that there wasn't a cooler hence the net search - had it out for an hour today as well, a fair bit in traffic too and it wasn't running hot (although it is only about 15c today) and everything felt as it should do.

....that could explain why some pics I've found seem to have them, and others not!

Didn't want to kick up a fuss in the shop only to look a complete arse if I was wrong!

2002 748s. No cooler on mine just a mesh grill, that’s probably what fordies seen. ;)

cheers guys, I shall sleep properly tonight now that worry's gone...looks like I'm getting a 748 then, starting to feel like a kid at Christmas!

I'll have a large mojito if you'd be so kind. Gutted to hear about your 996. great choice on a replacement though. Enjoy the miles.

I feel like that every time I press the start button.
