I just picked up the OEM mounts for the sportster, looking at the models that come with the horn mounted with a 2 piece mount, I believe the mount half can be flipped upside down to move the fans into the best position for cooling. Like the horn mounts, I'm sure it can be done, just got to work out the details. I'll be working with one of they guys at work to mount to his sporty, I'll post here how it works out.

 

(Clearing throat) ahhh mini beast mounting solution. Well I wanted to be the one thousand first post but you beat me to it, should we just go ahead now and order the thermal switch?

 

Got my FCS a few weeks ago, great product for sure with a great fit/finish. Since installing it I have gone into Baltimore for stop/go traffic to really test it out and the EITMS kicked on without effort. Turned the FCS on for the way back through town for all the lights and EITMS never kicked in. I would say that is a great testament to how well the product works!!

 

Just sitting and waiting for the thermal switch, I will definitely be buying one.

 

+1 on the thermal switch. In the meantime I'll just install my Jagg fan assist cooler.

 

Sometimes I just get lucky, I found the guy who actually used to make the OEM HD damper mount for the horn, before they started sourcing them from overseas. Anyway, I got some alternative damper samples coming, which I think will not only be the best solution mechanically, but probably the cheapest as well. Im pretty sure this will be my solution whether I go with a standard or custom damper. Be patient guys, I am working this stuff, and I will provide some alternative mounting solutions for some of the aftermarket horns.

Also got a call from one of the chrome shops today, it will be about about 2 weeks before I get their sample back. More to follow.

 

If only everyone I conducted business with was as through and dedicated as you are the world would be a much better place for me

 

+1 I love good ole American ingenuity !

 

I've noticed something with mine that I haven't seen mentioned here. Not only do I get the added cooling benefits, but now when I get gas, I leave my fans on and don't get the dreaded kickback/grinding from the starter on a hot restart. (FM 107 build) I replaced the comp with the SE comp, which took care of probably 70% of the kickback problems....but the cooling fans took care of another 20% or so. No more embarrassing grinding noises at the gas station. (you know, the ones that turn everyones heads to the source of the God awful noise)

 

Once you kill the fire and leave the fans running, it only takes 2 minutes to knock down about 50 degrees, I can see where it could mitigate some of the hard hot starts.
