Default Cooling fans?

2011 Ultra Classic Limited. I am considering the purchase of cooling fans for the bike. Anybody have any suggestions? Here is a set I found on JP Cycles;

Those are the ones I have. I think they work real well. On the hottest day my engine temp would not go above 266 on my power vision tuner city riding in TN. A little hotter when I was riding in Phoenix. But I normally avoided riding when it was above 110 out there as it feels a heater blowing in your face and it gets worse the faster you go.

I have the harley parade fan that can be switched on with the accessory switch. If I am riding in stop and go traffic I simply switch on the fan. Once moving normally I switch it off. The eitms, sorry if the initials are wrong, never trips

Wards looks the best IMO & works great. Might have to wait till next year as they are in big demand. I believe it's one man building these. Glad I got mine when he first started taking orders this year. Well worth the wait.

there was a guy on this site beating his drum about the ones you are looking at. He sure liked them.

I bought wards fans and they work excellent. I bought a set for my dad too.

Wards fans are worth the time to at least look at and consider. Very well made and they work.

Glad to see Love Jugs have a version other than the gawdy chrome ones. I just can't handle the way they look. The Harley parade fan is another that looks just too in-your-face for me...

They may work well, but I can't stand to look at them.

That's why I also have Ward's fans. They are very subtle, almost unnoticeable, and they work very well. Plus Jason's customer service is top notch!
