Author Message   Oysterman Posted on Saturday, January 29, 2011 - 11:27 pm:        Do all xb's have a fan that turns on when you kill the motor? My 9sx does, but my 12r that I just bought doesn't. I haven't tore it down yet to look, was hoping someone on here could give me some idea where to start.   1_mike Posted on Saturday, January 29, 2011 - 11:54 pm:        One fan. If the head sensor tells the ECM the engine is hot...yea, it'll run for a few more seconds after the key is switched off. Unless it runs all the time, or runs for 10 minutes after shut down...I wouldn't worry about it. Just put a right side scoop on the 9.

It runs the whole time you are going. Even in the summer my fan hardly ever comes on when I shut the bike off.   Racerxrex Posted on Monday, February 21, 2011 - 01:46 am:        I bought a 2009 XB9SX from Texas on ebay. Had it shipped to Seattle. The fan ran every time I ran around the block. Got the latest flash and now it barely runs at all. This is something you can have the local HD dealer do/check. Mine is still under warranty, so they did for free.. I told them I was having Rideablity issues & it was a safety concern for me.   Firebolt020283 Posted on Monday, February 21, 2011 - 02:03 am:        my 03's fan only runs if I was in a lot crappy traffic before I got to my destination or if it is really hot out side. But if it is cold out side and I stay in the wind it does not come on. I think my 2010 short scoop helps with that some.
