Not a 650 guy but it strikes me that the Nighthawk came in SOHC and DOHC form. If the later twin cam model had an oil cooler (anyone?) - it may fit.

Your bike was designed without one, so unless you live in a really hot place, it probably won't make any difference.

I can confirm that the DOHC model has an oil cooler. If (and it's a big IF) it does fit you may need the Filter bolt too, because it fits as a flange between the engin and the filter cover.
