I don't see this happening unfortunately. The cool fan is wired to the ecm and needs a flash. This is available to turn on in an m8 bike. It however is not in the 16 down bikes.

Seeing that the frames are the same, i don't see why a guy couldn't install the fan and use it manually with a separate switch. It would still do lts job, just not automatically.

 

Have you adjusted the air fuel mixture? Lean mixture is the main source of excessive heat on twin cams.

 

Yes the bike has been tuned, FPS and power dual with 4.5 monster rounds

 

I took me good 3 hrs of sweat,frustrations,**** off, and so on.
it has poor instruction manual,Pics,especially the on,off switch.
you have to be a genius to assemble fan button to mount on switch body.
And after completed of installation Harley dealer has to updated, so call digitally update.
What the**** PITB.

 

Is it possible to install the fan on a touring bike before 17?

I only need on/off no automatic mode

in the service information picture 4 is the simple integration with the switch described

why i need the update with the digital technican?

 

I had it put on my 17 Limited when I picked it up. The 17 trike I traded it for didn't have it and was much hotter. You don't notice the operation of the fan other than the lack of heat.

 

Love mine. Noticeably less heat felt coming up from the engine on most days. When the temp outside gets 95* or more, it kind of washes out. Below 90-95, it makes all the difference in the world.

 

will wait to see what my wife thinks of the heat when I head out to NYC later this year and go into Time Square with all the stop and go

 

At my 1K service I had the dealer enable CoolFlow option in the ECM prior to installation. It of course threw a code until I got the fan installed a couple weeks later. Installation was easy peasy. Bike heat has never been an issue for us, but I thought I would hedge my bet nonetheless. 6k miles on our new 17 FLHTK. Bike has been great. No oil transfer, No spitting or puking anything, It did stumbled and die at a stoplight twice early on but I think she has grown out of that nonsense. Would buy again and recommend if you ride in hot climates.

 

I wonder whether it would help too, to bring more airflow to the rear cylinder which tends to runner hotter. I had issued with the sputter thought maybe going from 2003 with Cable to Hydraulic.....sure a thin band there. Only problem I had was twice a check engine code which was 02 sensor rear running rich.
