    I may add a duck to the fleet by next summer. Been a few years since I've owned a bike. First one was an 86 intercepter and the last was an 07 Buell XB12r. I bought her with 7 miles on the clock!!

    NOT looking to add frequent trips too the shitter to my "to do" list!!!

    Get well brother!

          My last bike. Home-made seat and exhaust. Lots of unnessesary things removed. Light and fun.

          Still have this one, but it needs some work.

                        I recall seeing a premade "harness" of sorts for adding a electric radiator fan... But for the life of me can't find the website (I thought it was on CATuned/Condor/IE....). Needing to get my radiator and fan situation sorted out in the next week or so and SUCK at electrical.

                          Are you removing the mechanical fan?  Or replacing the aux electric fan?

                                    I am a huge fan of the m42 rad. It looks nice and clean. We will see how its cooling capacity is with the m50 turbo...
                                    If it doesn't keep things cool, I will run a z3m mishimoto with a shavebay reservoir ! 
                                    On your m20 you shouldn't run into any issues though.

                                          You should be able to power it from the stock wiring that went to the aux fan assuming it draws less than 30 amps. The on/off is controlled by the temp switch on the right side of the radiator. The one to use is from the 4 cylinder which is 80/88c rather than the 6 cylinder switch that is 90/99c. The are identical other than the switching temp.

                                          Do the aftermarket fans have low/high or just one speed? If just one speed then I would hook the positive lead from the fan to both the high and low wires from the car harness so it runs whether the temp switch calls for low or high speed.
