The only information I've found is from the rsvr website which states:

"This simple to install kit allows the mille/falco/tuono owner to reduce engine temperature by up to 15°f by turning the fans on sooner. If you are fed up with things getting too hot when driving through traffic - this mod is a must !"

If needs be I can take it out off the packaging and test it in a pot of hot water to tell you the exact temp it switches at...

Not sure about postage to Australia, I could try popping it into the cargo hold of one of planes on the sly (I work for TNT), or alternatively settle for a much slower but cheaper shipping route.

What temperature does the low-temp fan switch turn the fans on, please? The Aussie summer means the Falco is running a bit hot almost all the time I'm riding. :smt012

Cheers!

To fit them you'd need (at a minimum):

Upper and lower yoke from corresponding Mille R (I have the upper yoke that you could have for now't - the lower yoke is twisted, but you could have it gratis as well).
Set of clip-ons - I settled for some LSL clipons (since they come in various raised heights) with replacable bars

Just one query really.

How easy to fit to Falco? Do I just need to source a lower yoke?

BLING!!! :smt007

Galfers, temp switch and forks are still up for grabs. If I don't hear back from Viking by the end of Tuesday, I'll let Falcopops have the switch.

No offence taken, no need to worry.

It was about 20C outside for the commute this morning, and the Falco never got below 90C. Damn traffic. :smt013

Viking,

Where about in Oz are you? I'm giving serious consideration to moving out there so I can complain about the heat. :smt002

Melbourne.

There's a pretty good Aprilia club here, there are good bike roads a short "transport section" away, excellent food places. And the weather isn't too bad either - we're in a drought at the moment, so not much rain to speak of.

Can get pretty chilly in winter, though. Down to about 0C last winter (just before dawn) with tops of about 10C. Summer temperatures range from lows of 10C to highs of 40C or higher (but really rare).

Emigrate. You know you want to. :smt002
