Hi there, I have fitted a CB650 SC oil cooler setup to my Benelli 900 sei, it fitted straight on to the crankcase and works very well. Benelli sixes tend to run too hot without a cooler due to the narrowness of the engine block which is only 1-3/4" wider than a single cam CB750.

I mounted the cooler where the original horns are situated, under the fuel tank and between the frame downturns. I relocated the horns on either side of the rear engine mounts under the bank of six Dell'orto carbs.

I have also fitted a CB650 oil sump which also bolts straight on without any mods. The CB650 sump increases the oil capacity over the Benelli one. The CB650 SC cooler setup fits all Benelli multi's from the 350 Quattro up to the 900 sei.

Benelli fours and sixes also accept the same oil filter element as single cam Honda's from the CB500F to the CB750 series of fours.

Thanks for an interesting forum.
