Harleys fan-assisted-oil-cooler-kit
 

Does anyone that has a 2017 touring bike have this kit on their bike? And is this fan assisted oil cooler worth it? I live in South Florida where it is always really hot and heavy traffic has become the norm. Thanks

Do not have one yet but I will. They told me back ordered until Nov 15. So once it comes in it will be install along with synthetic oil.

Thank you for your reply. I'll be ordering it.

I had one installed about two weeks ago. Wanted to get it covered under my warranty. I live in the mid Atlantic so it's cooling off a bit right now. Not sure if it helps, but what can it hurt. BTW I also had the rear cylinder cooling fan installed.

Should we also consider the other fan behind the rear cylinder, which shows the heat being pulled down and out to the rear? thanks

This is just my opinion, on the rear cool fan option. It's not going to do a thing to cool the engine any, it is going to keep the heat from the rear area from rising up to you the rider in slow speed riding (<25). So if your feeling too much heat then I am sure it will help that feeling and it will also help the feeling of heat on the passengers right foot and ankle.

Too bad they don't make a kit that you could channel all that heat in the winter time to keep you warm!

It's pretty well established that the rear fan is primarily for passenger comfort. Not really marketed to cool the motor. I've got 2500 on mine now and even on really hot days she has not commented on any heat issues like previous bikes. I'm moving to SC in the spring, I may look into the front oil cooler fan though. I put the Ultra Cool fan assisted oil cooler on an 08 a few years ago, it worked pretty good.

The rear fan does both. It is activated by the ecm depending on rear head temps. At slower speeds under 35 it is pulling more air past the head at the exhaust port. May not be a major thing but everything adds up like also doing a tank lift for more air over the rocker covers has shown a small amount of cooling.

I have one on my solo seated RGS. When I was in a city with a stop light every block for many blocks it came on.
