Failed fan light

Did not, should I?
My bike came with fan that was not installed, and plug was in, fan light was not on. I installed Spall fan with factory plug which is working as it should. I don't know is anything in there or not Don, you know the old one " if it's not broken, don't fix it"!

Headlight and fan plug are just dummy plugs

The kickstand bypass is the only one that does anything

Hope the dealer figures out dudes bike soon

: )
 
Resistor is a 2w 6k ohm anything close to that be good.


Bo13R speaks words of wisdom. If you can avoiding anything Ducati service related will pay huge dividends. See Mick for the resistor. I’ve never used on so I can’t speak on the value. Mick what’s the value? Yea that trail tech stuff is cool. That little fin sensor is nice.
 
Can the fans be blocked off with a resistor at the connection where they split into two (clips onto the ABS module on the V4) or do the individual ends have to be plugged?
 
My bad then I actually lowered the fan temp 180 using the software. If the resistance at the fan terminal is not where it needs to be when the BBS kicks the circuit, you get a fan code. If your not running a fan, you need a resistor if the bike is going to exceed the factory temp trigger. My particular application does not cycle the fan at ignition.

The 1st fan on event is 216 and that’s done to burn all moisture away. I’ve set my fan on at 195 using the Tuneboy edit software, but 1st fan is still 216 then all subsequent on off points is 195.

Is yours the same or is 1st fan is 180?
 
It’s actually 185 and yes it’s a single temp setting. It will exceed that temp of course in many conditions but I’ve never seen it past 200 and that’s in SoCal light to light traffic. I’m not well versed on the “moisture” thing. I get it but don’t fully understand it. My cars go up to their operating temp and stay there as does the airplane (Continental TSIO 550) and they almost never exceed normal operating temps (180-185) so what’s special about a Duc motor?
 
Nothing

The water temp on our race boat never went above 170° and that thing lasted forever...

They prolly did that “217 first event” for the clear clutch cover crowd : )

I’d prefer 180. Probably can’t change without a tune and I’m not going that route.

Don’t get me started on clear clutch covers. Been in plastics for 20 yrs and that plastic is not resistant to oil with heat long term. It’ll get brittle. Lose integrity.

Your car does not lubricate the clutch with engine oil.

But it’s good to know about the 185 fan and never going above 200. I can’t say the same. I guess I could lower the temp more but another dude said the fan would never cut off. So I left it at 195.

I have one, and obviously when it’s no longer clear I will replace it. It’s rather easy to swap it out.
 
Never warmed my wet clutch drag bike oil? Zero to 84 in 1 second followed by 5 full throttle gear changes. And it saw that every 6 seconds that I ran it

We are running gasoline not methanol

If there was a way to keep the motor at ambient temp I would tune for that temp and make more power than you do at 180

Would run slightly lighter oil but not because I was worried about the clutch plates : )
 
Hi.
My bike has the same phenomenon now.
Is your bike completely repaired?
Can I know the cause and repair method?
