KiteSquid Posted June 16, 2009 #26 Posted June 16, 2009 Oi...off topic. Electric fans came about for MPG improvement but also due to the use of transverse mounted engines, which in turn came about due to the popularity of front wheel drive. A transverse mounted engine cannot run a fan off the front of it. Due to the widespread use, what was an added cost to use electric fans is now no longer an added cost. Sorry for the off topic reply. My rear wheel drive Chevrolet Tahoe had electric fans............
Naked Rider Posted June 16, 2009 #28 Posted June 16, 2009 i was at a camp ground looking for some friends of ours. we were going real slow in the park and then the fan comes on it was the first time that it had ever come on since i owned the bike it bothered me a little bit but then i thought well its doing its job after we parked it for awhile it went off but it took like 4 to 5 minutes.
N3FOL Posted June 16, 2009 #29 Posted June 16, 2009 This time of the year:sun1:, I hear and feel my cooling fan come on while stopped at a traffic light. Cruising down the highway, I can never tell with all the road noise around me. Everytime I pull in the garage, my fan kicks On for a few seconds and stops...I also never turn off the engine when the fan is running (wait till it stops).
scottbly Posted June 16, 2009 #30 Posted June 16, 2009 I have to let my 83 idle for a long time after a ride before it will come on
