I'm not sure why anyone would want to block off the oil cooler. I have an '08 and the clutch cover gets very hot as well and always has. I have never shot it with an infared thermometer so I dont exactly how hot it gets but I would imagine that runs around the 180 to 200 degree mark during normal operation.

Tell me why you would want to block off the oil cooler?
 
im guessing for drag racing maybe? not sure it was like that when i bought it. today was the first day for it actually to move without me pushing it haha. its been in and out the shop since around june.
full of brake fluid too btw
 
Something tells me the bike was turbo charged at some point and used for racing. The cover should match engine temp. HOT
 
c92 code flashing thats just fuel guage right? i know my guage doesnt work so that shouldnt hurt to drive like that right?
