Question Dual fans?

I am thinking about getting 2 fans mounted on my radiator of my 94 900RR, because my bike tends to get hot here in Florida when your practicing or just in traffic. I want to know where to get fans that will fit on my radiator, or do i just need one? (i know if i just get one i will have to move the existing one over, but will they fit?) Any help would be appreciated. Im trying to fix the problem before it happens ... its not very hot here yet.

Re: Dual fans?

i can't help you much on the RR, but i know that i have a dual fan setup on my 03 gix 600 stunna and it works great!!! one works regular and the other is on a switch. I only use the second one when its needed so that i'm not constanly stressing my charging system.

In NH in the winter you should be able to ride all day without a fan on.

I have 2 fans on my 929. just get another stock fan and have tabs welded on your radiator to hold the fan in place. I wired up my extra fan to be on all the time, then when it get's real hot the stock fan kicks in, works great and will make you motor last longer especially when doing burnouts.

i did the same thing..... just flipped the fan upside down... I run the second one off of a toggle, where I can flip it on or off whenever I would like.....

I used zipties to hold it in place though...... gotta have a zip tie or 2 somewhere on my bike I guess.
