Well, decided to order my very own right side air scoop. I'm tired of that fan running so much. Also, since I'll be riding to Wisconsin in Aug. I do not want that fan running all the way up there and back. Judging by how Bruce says it keeps his off I'll take a gamble.

BTW Bruce, what color did you use to paint yours?

It's on Trojan http://www.trojan-horse.co.uk/ website. Go there and run a search for air scoop. You'll see one for the Right side Fiberglass airscoop.

Figure it's got to be black but I want some good paint that won't flake off on me.

That site is freaking dangerous. Lots of killer stuff. I have already fallen prey to one order.

I ordered the right side scoop because I'm worried about my crotch region roasting in Houston summer weather. Anything to help reduce the heat!

Re: paint, my first thought was to use the same satin black 1200 degree Krylon that D+D uses on their exhaust.

Chicken, I'll let you know once they ship it. I ordered it late saturday for them (England) and of course they won't do anything Sunday (like over here). So I expect something today.

Elff, ain't that the truth.

Joele, my concern is how much the fan runs during interstate riding and now that the temps are up how much it runs during highway riding with the rpms over 3.7K. Anything to cut down on the fan use.

Thanks for the orders guys: )
Cost of the fan to the US is UK£106.38 plus shipping of UK£15. This equates to around US$220 total at todays rates.
