cooling fan
 
my sportster has a pacet clovfan club with capilliary kit, when I turn on the ignition the fan starts and runs for about a minute, when the engine is hot it does not run even though I play with the thermostat knob, any ideas?. If new parts are needed any idea who might stock them?

Sounds like the thermostat / capillary is kaput.

Spares are available:

If I remember correctly, I got my fan and top hose adaptor from SVC, so you could start there, or try someone from the pacer distributors list who may be closer to you.

My first thermostat broke as well after the first year - make sure the capillary cable has plenty of room to move around a little - I think that's where my first one broke. I've got the current one in a coil so it's like a spring.
