    Have many people done this .. and has it been a big plus
    I know colin has recently fitted one to his zed , was wanting some feedback if anyone else has.
    John have you done this to your monster and do you recommend it.
    And is it a must to have a side computer running it if you do ?
    Thanks all would be good to hear the pros and cons on this .
    I guess it might be like the Thermo fan question
    I know most people steer away from them with zeds
    for safety reasons with the zed engine ...
    Thanks all ...

    I know a few people running thermo fans....

    on their zeds and they have no trouble. They basically put in a thermo fan when their engine fan had developed enough cracks to be concerning. They have been running them for a while and the zed is fine.

    Cheers

    Why fix something that isn't broken? ...>>

    The stock zed water pump works well and is reliable.

    If the electric water pump stops working, the stock zed temp gauge won't tell you until you've cooked your engine.

    Point taken.. i think i will keep it as reliable as can be

    i was curious if you were building the ultimate Zed if thermos and eletric water pump would go on the same way one of the best things i did to the zed was put a different underdrive pulley . Big difference and less load on the engine to start with ..

    I do think to dangerous now , something extra that can go wrong .. Cheers
