No harness in there on Touring Models. The wiring on the Tourer's is located in the plastic enclosure that runs along the top of the backbone.

Oh I would like that. Wish the Dyna's were that way, would be so much more functional that pulling the wires out and stuffing them back in ever time I work on something electrical.

Nice update. I'm going to look at a similar mounting option now.
My Lenale crapped out at about 6 mos. I never did any testing per se, but seat of the pants told me it works; I rarely went into EITMS after putting it on and turning it on in traffic. Yeah, the durability sucks, but I decided it was worth getting a replacement. Fingers crossed that this one is more durable.

I didn't have much luck with the Lenale Fan on my 08 Ultra Classic. It died while riding along the Tamiami Trail Route 41 through the Everglades in 09, 6 months after installing it.

Had pretty good luck with my Lenale fan so far. Had one on the 2010 Ultra since it was new and now have one on the Tri Glide. They have been blasted by car wash a coulpe times(by accident), but kept on working just fine. I only turn it on in stop and go traffic and off again when back on the road.

Default Lenale fan

If you are truly interested in finding the best Harley Cooling System, check out "Love Jugs" I found them on eBay after typing in Harley cooling fans.

Check it out, lots of info that makes a lot of sense. This is the system you should test. I have both systems, The Lenale fan is now for sale. If anyone is interested, contact me. Thanks

Very nice! I'm probably one of first people on record to say the "Love Jugs" is likely the most powerful system available. Hope they have great success.

LOL, Jason you mentioned this system a few months back when you first started your thread. My preference is for your system, looks a lot better IMHO, I wish success to both, but I'm putting my $$ on you.

Hey guys, I don't know who this Springer Man is but he has made his presence known in this thread a few times (posts 82, 87,89,99, 116). Looks like all of his posts are in this thread. I tried to contact him to take him up on his offer to test the "Love Jugs" but have never gotten any response. Then the fact that no one has ever been able to find any information about them by searching the web, and no one has ever stepped forward and said "yeah, I've seen those", makes me wonder if such a product actually exists. Who are you Springer Man? And where can we find these "Love Jugs"?
