markygas Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Need to know your thoughts on running bike with thermostat wires crossed so as fan will be permanently ON? No chance of getting thermostat until late next week, have a fun day trial on the 3rd (hangover permitting! ) Thanks in advance, Mark HAVE A GOOD ONE GUYS!

outlaw dave Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Won't be a problem short term - Are you really having a Trial on Tuesday? Happy New Year ( You should be sober by Tuesday eh ??) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markygas Posted December 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Thats debatable! up here in the highlands new year lasts for days! it's not a trial as such, it's more of an off road bike day, trials, quad, mx and enduro bikes. gives us a chance to show off our skills to the speed freaks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordson major Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 A new fan motor is definently cheaper than a seized engine - keep it shorted till you get a new thermostat Hope that helped Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james111089 Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 it wont affect it , it will just take a little bit longer to warm up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trial_master Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 Would it be too much trouble to put the cables through a switch or atleast a connector block. That way you can turn the fan on and off at regular intervals. The weather is cold at the minute, so a longish spell with no fan shouldn't be too much of a problem, just dont leave it too long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
