good bit above 150 degrees F after a few full throttle runs. I
should be writing this down at the time so I can give accurate
numbers instead of my faulty memory(!).
I'm going to make a chart with cute little boxes for voltages and
temps. Let me know and I'll shoot you a PDF of it.
Anybody play with the throttle ramps I was thinking the Alltrax
supports, have results?
I plan to over the next week. Right now my Alltrax throttle ramp
looks more like a wall than a ramp. That might have something to do
with the hot Etek...
I am torn, 1 or 2 small low current 12v fans, or some larger 12v
fan. Ducting is key. Still noodling that one, clearance between
motor and frame and power leads... don't want to cobble it together.
Part of the reason that I like the fan assembly from All Electronics
is that it's basically eight fans so it might be possible to
experiment with turning on or off different fans in different
combinations.
Here's a link to it:

I was looking at the wiring diagram in the factory service manual for
my bike tonight and it dawned on me that I could probably use the
factory fan plug and sensor. I just need to find where in the manual
it says at what temp the fan is supposed to kick in and then see if
it can be changed some how.
