You have good days and bad days but I can not sit around for very long it drives me crazy .

Lower Temp Fan Switch
Barry.B replied to JoeKanuck's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
At what temp. does your bike climb to before your fan comes on . I drive a sec. gen and I have seen it go to 230 deg. before it drops . Barry: -
If you play around enough after taking the two bolts out it will come out but it takes some doing to get it .You might even lose you temper once or twice. You may not think it but it will come out and putting it back sometimes is just as hard. Barry:)
