You don't need a power source with a switch, the system has a manual switch built in, its pretty easy to acquire without looking, like finding a fuel petcock. Anyway, you just need a hot and a ground.
Outstanding customer service! I've never ordered something online, and then be notified 45 minutes later that it's been shipped. The built-in toggle is all I need. I've had both the Lenale Fan, and the 'Love Juggs' on my RKC, so I'm anxious to put your FCS's on my Ultra. Thanks!

Default Mini Breast and Cooling Fans Fitment?

There's a Mini Breast horn for sale here on the Forum...Just wondering if it will fit with my cooling fans. Has anyone installed this combination yet?

They can be mounted together, but the additional requirements depend on which model MB. Either way you will need an enhanced mount to support the weight of both systems, but the newer XR MBs require some modification to the MB horn bracket mount bolts (not the OEM HD bracket). I haven't done it or seen it in person, just going off remarks from existing customers.

Add "message to merchant" in Paypal, or email me after you place deposit to let me know you need the enhanced mount, I will add it to the balance invoice.

The EITMS on my 2014 Ultra activates faster than any of my previous Harleys. Never heard it engage on the other bikes. I ordered the fans on Friday night, and they were on my bike Monday afternoon! The fans work as advertised. No more embarrassing 'thump' when idling. The clearance between the fans and the cylinder heads are a perfect fit, with no vibration issues whatsoever.

Yes but they lowered the temperature range that they will go into the so called thumper mode. Any good tuner can change that temperature range.
But in fact its sparked the idea of lowering that temp range on air cooled bikes I am seeing it discussed in the tuner forums.

I think the fans are going to continue to be a nice addition with this version of Harley cooling system.

I have a mini beast mounted on my bike with the fans. Jason I don't know if you remember, but you sold the mount to me, I believe we figured the horn housing is 6" in diameter and the fans would still fit. I have a picture that I will try to load later, but it does work, (at least for the series of horn I have).

This is how mine came out. I drilled new holes in the cover to move it away from the fans approx. 1/4". No problems with the leg clearing the horn. Thanks Jason, your mount does the job perfectly.
