I received my fans - chrome with thermal switch over a week or so ago and they look FANTASTIC. I'll be putting these on my new CVO Ultra in the near future (no need up here in New England at the moment).
I ordered mine with the B+ connector, on the CVO this connector is right beneath the bottom of the fuel tank. Are most of you folks removing the tank to do the wiring?
I've never removed a tank, but in searching some threads it doesn't seem like a big deal on the newer models.
Thanks,
Joe

If I were you, I'd install them. You would be surprised with the cyl head temps even in this cooler weather. With the thermal switch installed, the fans will come on. My trike head temps avg 240* with the fans running.

Got my fans on....chrome is the bomb!!!!
Really easy to install. Nice fit and finish. Glad I spent the extra $$ for the chrome. Plus, he had the chrome in stock!!!! 5 days from my order, and had the fans! Thanks, Jason.

Everyone says how easy it is to install... But are you all removing the tank to put the wire in the channel under the tank? Or are you just snaking it under the tank as best you can without removing the tank.
I've spent some time looking at my CVO and there doesn't seem to be a way of insuring the wire does not fall and hit the heads without removing the tank to get the wire safely out of the way.
Thanks again,
Joe

Just wondering if the tank can be lifted up high enough to run the wires from the rear > forward without doing all the fuel line disconnects? Haven't looked at the manual because the fans won't be installed for awhile ...
