How To Install Radiator Fan (KTM / Husqvarna / Gasgas, enduro models) 

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you!

glad to hear!

Thanks!

thanks mate, I appreciate the sub!

@@jackkellybuilds Random question - What did yours come with? Was the cat still in the exhaust? Did it have a rubber assisted front sprocket?

@@Booki89 no cat in the exhaust, the dealership removes a lot of the stuff not required here in Australia, in other countries that stuff is left on. And yeah it also has the rubberised sprocket in a bag of parts that came with the bike, but the bike had a solid front sprocket installed when I took delivery

you have a different kit, the temp sensor and thermal grease in your kit gets inserted between the fins at the top of the radiator, you can then control when the fan turns on and off, with the LCD display. Your kit is made by trail tech and the install instructions should be on their website. The kit in this video is controlled by the ECU with no temperature readout, therefore making it a cheaper alternative to the trail tech kit.

it's possible, but there's a good chance you wouldn't be able to install the screws on the frame side of the radiator to hold the fan mounting bracket in place. but its possible that the fan would still operate fine. it just might not be as stable. thanks for watching!

no problem!

there is a coolant temperature sensor on the side of the cylinder head so yes the fan will work fine if you have removed the thermostat

Thanks a lot 😊

I purchased it from a local ktm dealer, can't remember how much though sorry

Thanks for the video mate, just did my fan and works a treat. Appreciate your vids. Would love a video on how u did your kill switch and if u ever put a phone charger in I would love that

yeah I'm also not sure if thats true or not, but I use the technical accessories section on the gasgas website to see what aftermarket/ oem options are available for my bike. maybe this kit may be listed under the ex250f

Thank you, yeah I haven’t boiled my bike since I’ve installed the fan and we do some pretty slow and steep climbs. So I’d say it helps a lot!

@@jackkellybuilds same here. No boiling this weekend doing the snotty stuff and fan worked a treat 🙏

I actually have no idea, my guess would be somewhere around 80°c

@@jackkellybuilds I've sent gas gas a message, see if they respond 🤙

Yeah only on one side

Thanks

yes

that is odd, sometimes the plug is tucked away zip tied up in the loom somewhere but since this is a factory ktm fan kit the plug should be there on all late model bikes.

Im not sure mate, the plug should be there, and the fan only kicks on at a certain temperature, have you gottenm the bike hot enough yet?

@@jackkellybuilds yes I have it set at 150°f and it doesn’t come on

@@brysonaverett6661 it sounds like you may have a different kit to this one if you're able to set the temperature. this fan kit's on/off temp is pre-determined by the ECU

no

I think the plug will either be tucked up in the harness or is only on the enduro models

you might have to get creative with the fitment and wiring but I think it has been done before

yeah I boiled it over a couple of times on some steep and slow climbs, so hopefully this helps, otherwise ill also get a coolant overflow tank

No, will only work with enduro models

@jackkellybuilds on the fan kits I've looked at it says fits a fc250?🤷

As far as I know, the ktm factory kit in this video is only plug and play with the enduro models. I think a few people tried to install this kit on cross country or motorcross models and couldn’t find the plug under the tank for it and had to come up with another solution. But if the kit you’re looking at says it fits, I guess it does

1:32 I put the screws in from the front, I even say that in the video, and you can see that I put them in from the front

@@jackkellybuilds you did it the correct way. If you look at the KTM manual for the fan it says to install the screws from the opposite end that you did. Obviously this is incorrect because the screws won't hold. I just installed the factory fan on my 2024 KTM 250 XCW. Also you don't need to remove the radiator completely. I removed just the top hose and angled the radiator slightly to get to the 2 mounting screws. Lost barely any coolant this way. Thanks for the vid!

thank you, this video only applies the the enduro models, not motocross or cross country models

I’m lm

im actually not sure, depends what year and model your bike is. this fan is for the late model enduro bikes

@@jackkellybuilds I ordered wrong one. Just going without one now

30 mins is a long time to let anything idle without a means of airflow. I installed the fan for when I'm doing tough hillclimbs when the rpm's are high, but I'm not moving very fast to help the bike stay cool. thanks for the comment
