Thanks for the link Steve.

I have all the gubbins ready to do this to my S before summer returns. (I think we skipped winter here. Only one morning at 0 C and 20+ daytime).

How on earth BMW thought the S would not need fans is beyond me.

If I have to trickle through traffic in 30+C weather the fuelling loses the plot and the bike becomes a popping, farting, snorting bag of s**t.

Can only guess at the oil temp. :shock:

I wouldn't mind doing something similar, even if it was on a manual switch to be honest

I already have the stylish w/proof manual switch ready to install. Not rocket science to know when to use it eh?

Will be next to the switch that defaults the ECU map to the -25kW setting. (But which I can switch up if I need to be devilish) :twisted:

Cheers
