Has anyone tried these, NEW COOL-MASTER - Love Jugs Love Jugs or something similar. I live in Arizona and i'm afraid the TS 111 is not going to like the summer months here. Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry OKH, you were asking a serious question. I live in the Chihuahuan Desert of the Texas Big Bend. Summer temps in the low desert hit 120 F. You've got a large displacement air-cooled engine that you're sitting astraddle of, so you can feel the heat coming off it. I have not had any problems with the engine over-heating, but the towns here are very small and I don't get stuck in stop and go traffic much. I don't know how much heavy city traffic you have to deal with. I rode an old air-head Beemer pulling a sidecar through downtown Phoenix one summer, and even that normally cool-running Boxer got pretty hot and started clattering some. The fans you linked to would probably help in such a case, but I'd sure hate to junk-up the side of my TS 111 with them. I haven't had a problem with the bike over-heating as long as I could maintain some forward motion and air-flow. Your situation may be different.Has anyone tried these, NEW COOL-MASTER - Love Jugs Love Jugs or something similar.

. It would be nice if they came out with a Love Jug for the T111 oil cooler

What about the temps on the other side of the engine? The would probably cool the left side but not sure of the right.Love Jugs Cooling Test:
I didn't have the patience to sit through the whole poorly produced and acted show, but that appears to be an forced air oil cooler. In otherwords, a fan.ASTV- UltraCool Oil Cooling Sytems Feature:Some sort of UltraCool oil cooling system?
Interesting thank you for sharing, could you take a picture so we can see how they mounted up on the TS111.Ok, So I was picking up my new Springfield yesterday and knew I'd be there for hours while they removed all my accessories of my old Chieftain to the new bike.
While there I was talking to the salesman and he mentioned the engineer of these Love Jugs would be in to drop off a few pairs of them as they were now going g to offer them to clients as an accessory. The idea sounded good and the price was fair enough ( especially thrown into my finance plan) when The bike was ready I went to check out my new baby and I was like UGH...
I didn't want to insult the engineer of them who actually put them on my bike himself. So I was like yeah looks great (in chrome). I rode home and was like I hate the way these things look and when powered on the have two red power lights that stay on. They actually do work very well, my 45 min ride home was without any heat on my right thigh.
Long story short, next week I need to go back to dealer to finishup the install of the rest of my add ons, including Stage 2 cams, I will be asking them to Remove the Love Jugs and take my losses. The idea and concept is great and they work as promised however IMO, it takes away from the beauty of my bike and VTwins..
So there you have it, but at just my 2 cents...
