researching tr650 bash plates and oil coolers

Hi guys, just brought a TR650 Strada and get to pick it up next weekend from Melbourne

I have been looking through the great information posted on this site and researching bash plates and oil coolers.

Has anyone seen or used the products manufactured by Scheffelmeiet Metall? (yes that is the correct spelling) http://www.bashplates.de/Husqvarna-Terra:::8.html

I have been most pleased with the service of Stephan. And he delivers quality products, the bash plate is nice thick high quality alu with nice clean welds.

Thank you for the link, greatly apppreciated. Will look into cost of shipping to Oz.

Congrats!

Gz for the bike
I think that Scheffemeier products are the best, high quality , A+

Not sure if the '650 needs an oil cooler even with a bash plate. As it is a dry sump engine, checking oil level can be problematic at times and the introduction of a cooler will not assist especially when it is purging. Run a good quality oil at the correct level and you'll find oil temps will not be excessive.

I'd say that's a nice lookin bash plate but check out some local made ones. b&b make one for $245

Fitted a B&B bash plate to the Husky and one to the DRZ. Both fitted easily and well. Good protection for bottom and side cases. Look very nice as well if that is important to you.
