Maybe it's just me, but it looks like it just blows the hot air towards the intake. any of those fans on that side the first thing they blow air on is the temp sensor.

 

Does the Lenale fan blow air mostly on the fins or does much of it blow between cylinders? I think Ward had a superior design. Maybe someone could get around the LJ patent by selling individual fans, one for each cylinder head.

 

I still haven't tested it yet, but the top third of the back is blocked off and it seems to blow more on the cylinders.

 

The LeNale fan does not work. It is completely dead. I sent it back to the Ebay-seller today.

I removed the horn and screwed the LeNale on place. Then without routing the wires, I connected the fan to the battery, just to test it. No life in that fan. It came with a fuse unit. After that there was 13.05 volts. So fuse was ok. The switch on the fan is covered with silicone, so I could not take any readings there.

The LeNale on its place.

Connected to the battery with its fuse unit.

Switch does not attach properly to the shape of the fan cover.

Lots of silicone, but not under that round black switch nut, holding it to the chrome cover. The switch may be exposed to water there, I think. Hard to tell off course, but it does not look good. The switch should be screwed to a flat surface.

 

Greetings from Sweden, that thing does not look very well made, and if its not even working I think you should return it and have your money refunded. I also think that tiny fan blowing air between the cylinders will have very limited impact on the engine temperature. A fan assisted oil cooler is a much better option.

And lane splitting is perfectly legal in Stockholm, I drive to work every day on E4, some days I pass hundreds of cars, including the blue/white ones, never had an issue.

Weather is starting to look good, a few weeks more and its riding season again

 

That crimp looks sketchy on the ground connector.
I was out riding Sunday and was slow rolling around the LSU campus for quite a while when I remembered I had the fan installed, looked at the PV and the ET was 286° so I turned it on, wasn't even 5 minutes when we parked and the temp was down to 270°, very short test, but the temp dropped, The next time before I take the bike out, I'll do a static test comparing cylinder temps with a infrared temp gun.

 

Yep, returned it today.

I have been considering several options, as you can see in this thread. Finally I went with the LeNale fan, (mainly for its looks, I confess). Now it feels a bit discouraging, I must say. I do not know yet if I will be refunded or they will send a new fan. We will see...

Anyway, spring is approaching and soon we are out on the roads again and troubles will blow away in the speed wind, maybe I will see you on Essingeleden :-)

 

The plus-connector actually fell off upon trying to connect it, so I had to replace it. The ground one I did not touch, as it did not come off and it seemed to have sufficient contact. But it is not well crimped, as you say.

I am glad to read your fan is working and that it is lowering the temperature. It will be great to know more about your testings.

 

The best fix for engine temperature I have found is to remove the temp reading from my Power Vision screen....

 

I'm finding this discussion quite interesting. I'm in the process of installing a Jagg 6 row cooler (no fan). I don't do much driving in stop and go traffic, but I believe every bit helps. In the spirit of keeping things cool, has anyone/would anyone care to comment on the efficacy of the DK tank lifters as another option? TIA
