The fans are from BigSky Fans.  Just search the vendor section and you'll find them.  They were $70.  They were suprisingly loud, but still can't hear them over the motor.

I'm struggling with finding an oil temp gauge.  I want the spun oil temp gauge to match the rest of my guages, but Harley decided in their wisdom to discontinue making them.  Had a dealer try to do a search of other dealers to find one sitting around but no luck.  There is a company that sells one that it is very similar (Rodger McEwin), but all the vendors that sells them are out and they say they do not know when they will get any in.

Thanks and good luck finding your gauge ... sucks HD they quit making the one you need.

 Fed68  I recall back in the old days we used to use mercury oil gauges and install them through the filler cap
           These were got from car suppies. Or maybe look in to custom car suppies you just may find something
           that may be suitable. just a thought, let us know how you make out as to what you come with.

It's definitely summer, so how are the fans working for you?

I have had one on my 08 Ultra for two years now. The best advice I can give you with it is, turn it on before the oil gets hot. I have found that if I'm in stop and go traffic and wait until it's running hot, it does not work well. If I catch it before I get into the stop and go traffic then it will slow the heat down a considerable amount but will not keep it cool. I elected to run mine with an off and on switch instead of the thermostatic switch. It's good but not great. Is it worth the 75 or so bucks? I think so, but that's me.

Hey Indcoltz,
Thanks for the info, I have a TTS with a map from Fullsac, plus Wards cooling fans and I still get oil temps in the 255 plus range. I think I will give em a try.
