They all overheat put a manual fan switch on it and connect it to a relay wired to ignition +12v so that the fans come on whenever the bike is running - done.

That will run your battery down.....if you are not riding at highway speed most of the time. Stop and go cruising, you will be in trouble by night time.

RAC4IT - It's even easier than that. The fan is wired to constant +12v in any case. All you have to do is to wire the switch for the emergency flasher (who uses that?) so that you provide a return path for the power.

The 1270 seems to be reliable enough for me. The only overheating issue that I had was when we were stuck in 20mph (stop and go) downtown Chicago traffic in 85+ degree weather.
I have no issues with normal riding in the small towns around here.

I have NEVER had any problems with overheating. Use some Distilled water and Water Wetter with the "correct" antifreeze mixture!! It works....

With my 1270 6 over, I ran 9.14 earlier this year. Backed it up with a 9.15, 9.16, 9.18, 9.19 all that day. No NOS.
