Hey. we had this engine sitting around that used to be in a go-kart. we had a fan on it to help keep it cool.

I just took it off, and it's a nice one. It's a puller, and pushes the air down/right/wherever yo decide to aim it.

I wanted to bolt it on my 400ex with a toggle switch. I think it would do wonders for the oil cooler.

My problem, it's an 8in fan.. even if it's big, will it still fit? I figure it'll cover the whole oil cooler that way. even though its a little on the large side.

so if anyone knows if it will fit, please let me know! thanks

There should be no need for a fan on a stock bore 400ex. I think it would be pointless.

i was riding through some tight trails the other day and the motor got really hot.. had to shut it down to let it cool.

most of my riding is open, but i like the back-up of the fan in the trails.

anyone know if it will fit?
