Bought a whole bunch of stuff from R&G racing in the UK recently for my 1050 Speed Triple. Got the gear, tried to fit the oil cooler protector and it's far too small.
I thought they'd sent me the wrong part, but it turns out the Speed Triple comes with two sizes of oil cooler - I think the early 2005 ones have a larger, 10-bar cooler, and the subsequent ones have a smaller, 5-bar cooler.
Anyway, it looks like the guard that I got is the smaller, 5-bar version. Sending it back to the UK and getting a replacement isn't worth my while, so I'm going to buy a new one and I'm selling this one.
This item is brand new. I would say still in the bag, but I opened the bag to try to fit it (it's back in the bag now, though. Does that count?).
It's an excellent quality item - R&G have a good rep.
Size: 255mm x 80mm. Colour - matt black.
PM if you want it.
