Hi,

Recently my fan motor has died. Sucks only have 900km on my bike. After searching it seems like I have to replace the whole assembly and I can’t just replace the fan motor

Does anyone know of a company who may sell these separately?

I can see what you are saying...and 262 bucks is a bit stiff. If you can separate the motor alone you should be able to match it up with something that will work. But if not....I think you are stuck with getting the assembly.

I was able to separate it. Pretty easily actually.
I have looked online and havent found anything that looks the same.

My guess is as long as the plug is the same and the motor isn’t completely different in size another manufacturer should work right?

[NMKawierider]

Well..it needs to-mount as the old one does, be close to the same RPMs, same amp rating, shaft size and configuration for the fan blade...and if it has a vent tube coming off of it the new motor "needs" to be a sealed unit so water can't get in during river crossings and such. If no vent then CFM didn't use a sealed unit. CFM fan motors don't go bad very often...are you sure it's bad? Have you bench-tested it?

New one here a bit cheaper on Aliexpress.

Yeah if it fits that would be the way to go...IMO

[cr8ts]

Yes I have done the bench test.

That fan on Ali express looks like the same motor, but the fan itself wouldn’t work because of the hole mounting space.

I guess it would still be cheaper to just take the motor off that then buying a whole assembly. Hoping the motor is as easy to come off as the stock one.

[NMKawierider]

Yeah the frame/shroud did look a bit different but if the motor is teh same I would go for it.

If you only want the motor then here are some.
