EOT meter for OEM oil cooler

[dsinned_imp]

Here are some photos of a completed installation . . .


Note, the bolt used at the top of the fan mount directly to the frame of the bike. This is one of three bolts (1-top, 2-bottom on each side) used to hold the EOC to the front of the bike. I had to get a M6 x 60mm long hex head bolt from my local hardware store to replace the existing (much shorter) bolt provided by the factory at this mounting point. Also note, this cheaper Chinese made fan has no finger guard, but is much less powerful, so I'm not too concerned.

The wad of dark gray "sponge" material shown close up in this last photo is there for added insulation of the Trail Tech temp sensor. This helps keep it from being directly in the air stream, thereby improving its accuracy.

Liberal use of wiring protection flex tubing and cable ties are essential for this project!

The Trail Tech meter had to be cable tied to the handlebar, because it's intended to be panel, not surface mounted. This is the "TTV" model that comes in their Universal Fan Kit. It can be purchased separately if you call TT to order. It also displays the bike's battery voltage and has an automatic back lighting feature. It is programmable, with the little blue button in the lower right hand corner, to turn the fan on/off anywhere between 150 to 200F, and comes with a "fin type" temp sensor. It costs a lot at $89, but can be quite valuable for monitoring purposes while actually riding a bike.
