Okay, the testing is done and we have the production model ready and will be for sale very soon. We are working with our distributor to finalize pricing and should be ready to go and ship within 2 weeks. Here are the pictures of the kit. 

The H - Competition Oil Cooler

The oil cooler frame and all mounting bolts are constructed of Titanium. The oil cooler is from England, along with the stainless lines. These are the same coolers you will see on many Formula 1 cars. All structural hardware is Lockheed Aircraft high fatigue lightweight stainless.  All fittings are A.N. spec aluminum.  This is a piece that we are proud to only offer to Ducati owners.  As you will notice, you can utilize the mesh cover for the cooler if you are so inclined.  The lines are also routed the same as the Ducati Performance kit, so fitting the kit is easy. We utilize both the engine and frame as structural support for our cooler, something you will not find on any other kit.

Great looking set up. Price and availability please?

Raux

is there a special part that goes in the oil filter or something like that that opens up the bypass valve for the oil to flow into the cooler?
or is it a no brainer, just hook up the in/out oil lines and that's it?

Nice,
looks very clean,
Is it hard to install? I would guess its an at home install, or would you fly up here and install it on mine, I'm guessing not, but he thought I'd ask.

Thanks Russ

DP unit is available, about $512+/-, plus labor. I've heard that it can take a little bit to get in, though. 

Figure if a dealer does it, you'll need to cover the cost of an oil change as well, as the kit includes a diversion valve that goes in above the oil filter.

That's what i was wondering about. the diversion valve.
so you do have to do the oil change. dang, wonder if i can get 7500 miles before summer is here.

Great response guys and thanks.  To answer all of the questions here, a person with the proper tools, a little bit of mechanical knowledge and a torque wrench should be able to install the kit at home.  Although, if you are not comfortable or lack the tools, I would have it installed by a proper motorcycle mechanic. Yes the kit is assembled in North America and is available here. Raux, the part in question is not the diversion valve, but a bypass.  Our kit has the bypass, but it is not in the picture (We only had one at the time, and there was no way I was going to do another oil change for a picture, I've done 4 of them already). The instructions for the kit will include how to install the bypass and the torque specs for the oil filter nipple. Really the kit can be installed in about 2 hours with the proper tools.  We are working on taking pictures for the pdf instructions this week.

7500 miles is a little long between oil changes (IMO), so no harm in changing the oil before then  :)

I totally agree with this. I started working on the kit at 2500 miles for that reason and last summer my oil temps went to 7 bars in traffic (thats 191-200C!!!!!! Way TOO HOT for oil !!!).  That is the entire reason for this kit.  The oil cooler will extend the life of the oil, but in my opinion it does not hurt to change it before the required interval.  Oil is cheap insurance against a costly repair.
