Default Cooling Fans

Jason I have been using the fans on my Limited in 100 plus temps, city and highway, and they are really doing well. I have the thermostatic control installed and I have power to the fans at all times, plus VIED. The fans cycle on and off a few times at stops and after usually 2 or 3 times after turning the motor off.

I even had to verify that I had the engine temp management turned on - I have yet to go into thumper mode on my motor which I really appreciate, even at a long light, having experienced that with a rental. And after a long run, then stopping for a bite to eat, the motor seems to crank back up again real easy without that sluggish hot-start sensation.

With the fans and VIEDs installed I never get the feeling of extreme heat that I used to get and that is with the motor and exhaust otherwise stock. Maybe not scientific but seat of the pants it seems right on. So I am very very pleased overall. Super product!

Latest batch is complete, almost done shipping existing orders and there are only a few black systems left. Figured I would let the forum know before I publish the update on my website. Again not a pressurized sales pitch just an honest picture of supply and demand for this product. If you want one, don't hesitate, I could easily be sold out again within a day or so. Thanks all.

Amen to that brother! Also, thanks again for a great product at a reasonable price. These fans are amazing! Riding today hot and humid. Long lights and never dumped into thumper mode.

Recently installed the FCS with the thermal switch on an '09 Ultra with VIEDs and Reinhart slip-ons. Rode for a few hours in mid-ninety temps and the bike ran great...EITMS never kicked in, it didn't feel like it was loosing power due to the heat and the throttle response never lagged or felt slugish. Excellent craftmanship, service, and performance.... what more could you ask for? This is how Harley should have built these bikes. I'm one happy customer. Well done Jason!

Just put the fans on my 117 today. Temps pretty steady near 230 head temps. Impressive! I was pushing between 255-270 in the same conditions. Money well spent
