Just put on the KTM electric fan kit for 2001 520 EXC. I rate it a thumbs up :) .
Installs in about 45 minutes. Includes instructions, hardware, wiring harness, thermostatic switch. No splicing required. Remove the tank, mount the fan, replace the drain plug on the left side radiator with a thermostatic switch. Plug in the connectors. Ride!
Fan comes on after about 3-4 mins of idling. Fan may continue running after engine switched off. Moves a LOT of air. The air flow is very hot, a sign of good, efficient heat transfer. About 4-5 minutes of slow trail speed on level ground, 10-15 mph, with 90F ambient temperature, and the fan cycles off again. The fan cannot be heard while running, but the air flow from it can be felt on your leg, (or with your hand) while scooting along at 15 mph or more.
Although it looks like one, it is NOT one of those computer type cooling fans that draw 0.3 amps. This fan is protected with a 5 amp fuse. If you stall the fan with you hand, or debris gets in it, it will blow the 5 amp fuse to protect itself. Don't run with the wrong size fuse, because the next fuse inline (10A), if it blows, will shut the engine down.
