I installed a factory fan kit on my '21 te300i. My bike came wired for it which made for a fast and simple install. Only cost about $100 at my local shop. Im a slow old fat guy so a fan deff helps keep the engine from overheating lol
Another great vid, nice to have another choice with the fan kit
It seems like a really good one.
Morgan, put the system together as it was designed. Most people are going to be installing it as its received. IF it becomes an additional leak point, that can also become another teaching moment
Good point
HI Morgan on my 300xc I wiried the Tusk adjustable thermo ($39 rmatv) on to a stock KTM Spal fan that came off of a '15 exc dual sport. Thermo uses the radiator fin probe... same as the trail tech. It works great and you can mount it up on the frame near the tank vent and steering down tube were you can see the temp. Put a tiny zip tie through the rad fins to and around back of the temp probe to keep it from ever coming out. Cheers
Thanks
Thanks
@@highlandcyclesLooks like I great kit spal fan is bulletproof. i like having the temp adjustability and I could not just plug into the ecu on my XC. Think you can on your ecw but you will only have one set kick on temp?? I set mine pretty high so it doesn't run down my battery to much. Think it's at ~195°
@@patrickbeatty3444 I don’t know if this bike has the capability to tie into the ECU but I will probably install it the way it came to show everyone that buys the kit how it works. Then maybe I’ll change down the line.
SPAL fans are very popular in the custom automotive community. Twin SPAL's on my 71 Camaro RestoMod!
Good to know
Morgan, I’m thinking about getting a new fan kit with a digital switch.
Right now, I’ve got a kit with a thermostat installed in the coolant line, but it’s disconnected, and I’m using a handlebar switch to turn it on.
Would you recommend going for a digital fan kit, or should I stick with the thermostat version?
Which setup did you end up with, and how’s it working for you?
Greetings from Israel!
I have the KTM fan kit and put the sensor in the radiator fins and it works just fine. It is temperature set-point controllable also. I’m guessing TrailTech actually makes it for KTM.
You are right. They build it for KTM.
I was going to say the exact same thing. Plus, solid video. 💪😃
@@TwistedTriggerEnduro thanks
Use the trailtec Style Switch! I used the billet Aluminium flange Style and it clogged Up after 100h and the bike used to Overheat. Plus cutting the Hose gives you another weak Point. I therefore Just fitted a regular Manual Switch and Turn the Fan on If necessary. Greets from Germany. Keep IT Up.
Thanks so much
I would use Thermostate that slides into the hose neater and less bulky not a lot of room in that area the bike is going run cooler I should think with the standard setting of that thermostat along with the fact you now have fan👍👍
Thanks Richard
Did the trail tech sensor end up working for the extreme parts fan kit?
No. The Trail tech sensor requires a gauge to plug into that would then turn the fan on. You could get the TT gauge and make that work.
Another thermostat option is wiring the fan to the factor harness, and let the ECU control the fan like the factory fan.
Hahaha. My ECU won’t do that. In 2018 they used thermostats
Morgan, have you ever done a video on an Athena Injector re-positioning kit on a KTM 300 TPI? Thanks for the great vids.
I haven’t
the trailtech sensor will need the digital display too to trigger the fan?
I know. Which means more money and rigging a mount. I’m going to do it the way it came to do a real review of the product.
Morgan, I'm using this kit on a '24 XC and debating the inline sensor same as you were. Did you ever install the inline sensor? Did you install it in on the hose that connects the two radiators at the bottom? Does this bottom hose effect flow, as it seem the smaller inline fitting is more restrictive? Am I overthinking this? 🤣
I don’t think it’s enough of a restriction to cause any issue
@@highlandcycles I’ve had the fan but didn’t install it. Your most recent situation has changed my mind. What fan will you putting on Loretta? Inline sensor or the fin in the radiator? Back to the inline, is the coolant temp in the bottom hoses reasonably close enough to the temp in the hoses at the top where the coolant is returning from the head, or has it cooled down too much by that point. There isn’t enough real estate to install the sensor in the return from the head
@@highlandcycles ….the traditional threaded bungs in the radiator are always at the bottom. Inline on the connector hose will probably be fine
Morgan, which bars do you have on that bike? are those the protaper woods high bars?
Yes they are
Link for review vid ?
I’m not a fan of cutting any hoses. I kinda like you I don’t know if the temperature range will line up. It could be laid on a known hot surface to check resistance. Lots of ways to skin a cat. where there’s a will there’s a way. I got faith in you you got this. In my opinion you are in the top 3 best bike technician on RUclips. I would someday like to ride with you guys. Thanks for sharing your time and videos with us and me.
Thanks Brant
That bung seems like a better way to regulate the temp more accurately but the trail tech is a simpler solution.
Yeah. Still haven’t decided
@@highlandcycles but here’s the decider. You should test their kit as is for a product review. We know the Spal fan is good, the mount is good but we’ve never seen a temp controller like that.
@@orijinalgamesta9738 I agree. I am going to do it the way it comes. That is also the least expensive.
U mount the bracket screws wrong, just like me :) the fan will fall from the bracket
I fixed that.
Use the Trailtec on. Its much cleaner
Thanks
How come you don’t like a rad fan on your bike?
Generally it’s just one more failure point and I like simplicity over lots of things. I also rarely get a bike hot enough but I’m planning on doing more hard stuff in the future.
@@highlandcycles exactly Morgan just one more thing that hardly anybody needs
@@donproper3632 But if the fan goes out you're back to square one, you haven't lost anything you just don't get the fan to turn on. So technically there are no failure points.
@@kimojon9665 you could put on three or four fans that way you would probably need another batter that way you would even have better cooling and what's the chances of all four quit working?
Morgan ... I'd install the trail tech thermostat ... As it is less intrusive ... And less prone to potential failure ... I have a trail tech fan on my ktm300xc and it has been bomb proof in the two years I've owned it ... I do like the adjustable on/off thermostat feature ... However once I set it I have never touched it since ... Being that the company caters to the hard Enduro guys ... I'm sure they figured out the best temps to turn the fan on and off
Thanks Dave
Play the drinking game, when he say's "actually"
No kidding. Gotta work on that
Why you having the gun with you all the time? It must be very uncomfortable unless you are in South Africa 🥴👍💥🔥
It’s not uncomfortable at all. It doesn’t weigh much at all. It’s more about exercising my 2A rights than feeling like I need it.
How come Extreme has been such a secret?
Huh?
My guess is that they are a European company.. and want to break into the US market.. Morgan may very well be their first advertising campaign..
@@ddkessler14141 maybe. They are also pretty young.
I see you are right handed.
Hehehe. Yep.
