megroovy Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Hi folks, the UK tracer group members have had several bikes where corrosion sets in on the oil cooler (next to the oil filter) but it goes unnoticed until it springs a coolant leak. Just wondering if any of you guys on that side of the pond have experienced this? It's the big unit from assembly 9 here https://www.ajsutton.co.uk/genuineparts/26039/8/yamaha-mt09-tracer-abs-2015/oil-cleaner?uID=0 I've spotted a couple of second hand units on ebay over there and they look immaculate!

scaley Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 the oil cooler is prone to pebble dashing from the front wheel and dousing with salt solution. I wash and hose it after every ride in Winter. So far after 11k miles no issue. ( quickly touches wood). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megroovy Posted April 23, 2018 Author Share Posted April 23, 2018 update: I did a video describing the problem. I think it's just a UK weather thing but our problem lies in that you can't wash the problem area unless you actually pull back the hoses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koth442 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Judging from facebook, it seems to be a UK thing indeed. '15 FJ09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Judging from facebook, it seems to be a UK thing indeed. The oil cooler is available for $275 us dollars, a far cry from the 500 British pound quoted on the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
