Cool air cooled engine with>>>>>

For air cooled engines, this is a nice addition to help cooling. I wired up a computer fan with a toggle switch to help cool my Tao Rhino. They're all 12 volts. This one blows at 200cfm and was 20$ on Amazon.

I like that idea. My quad had that from the factory, but I quickly killed it with water and dirt. I'd consider a fan that is a little more robust for my riding style.

Without a shroud, that thing will do much less than just the airflow from driving it.

I suspect the fan is helpful in parade mode. In other words, crawling through the bush at less than walking speed.
