Lol you want to talk about inappropriate actions in the context of a forum. You are the one that came on to a thread of a forum sponsor and bashed his product while trying to push yours as the ultimate system. That is what prompted my comment, it was a unprofessional act on your part and totally disrespectful to Ward. I don't want to turn Jason's thread into a flame war so I'm done arguing with you.

Steve,
The problem is that nearly every post by you or one of your employees (you masquerading as an employee/multiple logins?) reads like an advertisement and a challenge to those who don't care for your product. This whole thread wasn't about which one works better; it was about the technical and testing aspects of Jason's FCS. Complete with the "why" he chose the parts he did and the testing of those parts.

Robd1 said he was considering your fans, had looked at your web site and the videos and was looking for more information on Jason's fans in order to make an informed decision: You immediately went defensive. You said just above that "I always do basic research, so I know the facts, before I made a major purchase for my Harley" yet you tried to interrupt Robd1's ability to do the same.

Deliberately trying to prevent someone from getting an answer, going on the defensive so quickly, and posting an advertisement for your product in a conversation about someone else's product is not just bad manners but you become that annoying, spoiled rich kid that can't understand why everyone wants to go play ball in the backyard lot rather than your groomed ball field. Your "wall of text" post in a thread about Wards FCS, and in response to a post asking for information about the FCS, came across as a whiny "why would you buy his, mine are so much better!"

As someone else said, you really came across as an *******, and I wouldn't buy anything from you just because of that.

+1......

What's that old saying, "Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt!"

Glad Steve posted, now I know he's the kind of person/business I WILL NOT do business with...

I installed Jason's fans and thermal switch last week on my 110 RK.....the quality and chrome were top notch. Thanks Jason for the fast service and excellent product. Best cooling solution on the market imo.

Just ordered my third FCS fan. This will be my third bike that Ive outfitted with wards fans and they are great! The single best improvement that I have ever made to a twin cam.

One thing that drives my ocd crazy is the toggle switch mount position. The off position is in the down position and "on" is up. Well I want the default position to be "on" and in my OCD mind the default position should be down as it would fall with gravity. I also wont buy jackets
With pockets that zip closed upwards.

haha anyone else know what I mean?

Thanks for a great product.

Down with those ugly love jugs! Boo!

Are your house switches backwards to?
Zippers I agree with.
It is a pain to zip a zipper that closes going up but easy if it goes down when riding.
