Krusty's idea of using a junkyard fan to blow on the engine is the best I
think, but, why re-invent the wheel?? Buy a LC bike similar to the KZ and
use it for the bulk of your training.
While it is simpler to buy something than to start from scratch and
build something *completely new*, I know for a fact the KZ-1000 will
run cooler if he just richens up the idle mixture, and the cooling fan
will work better than the oil cooler.
Dyno operators will use box fans to cool motorcycle engines between
power runs. He's not going to be using a lot of power, but he needs to
keep air flowing past the cooling fins.
OT: I remember the first time I ever heard the phrase, "Why re-invent
the wheel?" I was puzzled by what it meant...
Engineers at a certain fly-by-night company that supplied
telecommunications equipment to the Saudis were disinterested in
keeping up with inspection records, and everytime I would ask somebody
to actually show me that an engineering order had been complied with,
they would answer "Why re-invent the wheel?"
And I would answer that the company wasn't involved in cutting edge
research, they needed to keep howing the row until the crop was
harvested.
They finally had a crop failure when the Saudis didn't renew the
contract for more command, control, and communication equipment to
defend the kingdom.
