Looking for fan pics on '09/'10 Husagbergs

Howdy all!

I would love to see some pics of the OEM fan installed on an '09/'10 Husaberg.
Especially with the tank off, and if possible, how the wiring is routed and plugged in.

Thanks! E-Ticket
 
RE: Looking for fan pics on

Photo from a guy on Adventure Rider who was getting his 570 ready for a rally.

I was going to do my fan install tomorrow . The instructions say to remove seat and plastic side cover ONLY, but I can't see how I can get to the other side of the radiator to use the rivet gun without removing the RHS radiator - it wont bend that far it seems - did others remove the radiator, and if so, is it easy to bleed the radiator when refilling?

Also, contrary to the picture, I thought the two rivets go on the RHS (of the right radiator) and 1 on the LHS but the pic has it the other way around - anyone else chime in thats done the install?

Thanx in advance

You must drain and remove the radiator from the bike in order to install the fan. Picture is correct with only one rivet on the outside, 2 on the inside. I had to remove my tank to locate the connector but others have been able to find their connector without removing the tank. One connector goes to the bike harness and one goes to the fan (I think the directions state both connections go to the bike harness). When done, just fill the radiator, run the bike and check fluid level. Top off if needed. To check operation of the fan I let my bike idle for approximately 7 minutes. Fan should go off a couple of seconds after shutting the bike off. Locate your fuse for the fan where you can access it easily on the trail if need be. I have not had any boilovers since installing the fan.

+ 2 on all of the above.

BTW, you can check your fan motor wiring by shorting the two leads of the temperature sensor. To check if the sensor is working correctly - you have to run your motor like WoodsRooster suggested. Also, getting the gas tank off now after installing a fan is a bit of a PITA ... as the fan gets in the way. The easiest way that I found is loosening the sub-frame and letting it dangle just a bit so the end of the tank can swing by it.

I installed a fan on my 2011 FE570 today.

Seat off; r/h spoiler off; prize off the black plastic guard from the front of the rad; disconnect three hoses (mind your feet don't get wet!) and remove two bolts located behind the black guard and you then have the radiator in your hand.

Screw the fan to the mounting bracket. The instructions suggest that the fan wiring should be in the 9 o'clock position when view from the rear of the bike. The bracket then pop-rivets to the radiator. Screw in the therm-switch.

Wiring neatly isn't easy. I wrapped the wiring around the fan using numerous small cable-ties. The connector was located without removal of futher parts and joins as shown:

Thanks guys for your help - the fan is now on. I didnt have to take the petrol tank off to find the spare power plug-in socket - but it took a powerful torch and a good 10 minutes to locate it.

I let the bike idle for 12 minutes (its cool outside) and then it came on - so it works :)

With the fan and my new 12 tooth front sprocket (1st gear nice and low <15 km\hr) - overheating is a thing of the past for low speed technical single track.

i have a fan on my 450-09 and have not had a problem with boiling even through the snotty single trail :cheers:
 
I've had my fan kit on for a couple rides now, love it! The only thing that is bugging me now is the fitment with the coolant hose and the wire housing shown in Greg's second picture. One prong of mine is actually bent in because the hose is right there and it's in direct contact with the hose, not good. Maybe there is some adjustments I can make with the hose placement to get some clearance?

I recognised that problem too. Since I took the picture I've bent the spade of the thermoswitch away from the hose and it now touches the other spade (or it would if it wasn't for the insulation on the connectors). It's been a year like that and the hose hasn't worn through!
