The radiator fan motor has died on my '01. I know the '08 - current models don;t use a relay switch, but is the motor/fan assembly interchangeable? eBay is a bit low on fans for Gen. 1 bikes.

Might be a ninja part. There are a fe wparts that are the same that I know of. Check the compatibility list in files and let us know if you find a compat unit so I can add it to the list if not there

The Ninja EX500 fan is a two wire fan, vs the KLR 3-wire fan. "I believe" the KLR third wire is an additional, more-positive ground, directly from the motor to frame. I don't have the experience, but "I believe" it will work just fine without it. (I bought the fan assembly for the fan blade--and now have a spare motor.) You will see that the ninja fan is 8 blade vs the KLR 6-bladeed fan. . The bolt and radius of the fan are =, so it bolts right in. It will give you a smiley face all over again. I think the OEM price for the entire KLR assembly is $385, so $26 is looking pretty good!Varience between years has not been validated.http://motors.shop.ebay.com/__?_from=R4 ... > ####### Fan and Starter Circuit Relay Varience between years has not been validated but known to work on pre 08sAs submitted by Jeff Saline followsI haven't verified the info but believe it to be correct.Relay is under the tank. replacement part is available from Auto Zone, Advance, etc. Fan relay info from http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthre ... > Manufacturer - GP SorensonNumber on Box - 41-5002Other Part Number - R3054Z - use if kid at counter can't find the first #.--------- Forwarded message ----------Date: Sun, 17 Sep 2006 after having 2 kawasaki fan relays fail on the trail, i now carry a spare. toyota part #90987-02004-83 is identical to the stock part and costs $12.84.

I'm looking at an EX 500 fan and it appears to have mounting hole at the 12:00 position and two at 6:00. This doesn't line up. The mounting bracket for the 08-14 bikes looks right, but is the plug the same?
