January 31, 200620 yr At the trial on sunday i noticed my fan was on as soon as i started it from cold. Would this be the thermostat? Any help much appreciated CHRIS
January 31, 200620 yr Sounds like thermo switch on radiater is knackered to me. swithes earth side of fan?
January 31, 200620 yr Author yes i thought it may be that because if it was short circuited it would still run with the cables off of the thermostat i think??? Does any one know how much on will be because im a bit short of cash and may need to start begging mum or dad!!!
January 31, 200620 yr Is it definitely on all the time? Don't some bikes have it come on straight away, then go off. Always thought that would be a good idea as a confidence test, but I suppose it's not possible with the thermostat in-line, unless there is another feed to it.
February 1, 200620 yr Author Thanks for all your help much appreciated ill order one as soon as possible even i its not that it will be a good spare to have!!
February 8, 200620 yr A lot of riders, myself included, who's thermostat has died, hotwire the fan to run continuiosly with no adverse effects!!
February 10, 200620 yr if its a really cold day the bike wont run at its optimium temperature if the fan is wired on constantly, it iwll also take a long time to warm up. James
