seized up on me today... gonna need new rings and a piston. So everyone gets to say I told you so. I guess it won't work with out the fan shroud. Can someone tell me where I can get one of these from a non ebay seller? I don't have a paypal account. and it would be nice if it didn't come from HI so I can get it quicker.

ok told you so.
i thought you said with or without fan shroud. them suckers cost millions, seem worth it?
millions for your engine. there's no engine i've ever seen without a fan. doesn't even weedeaters have fans. air needs to go around the whole thing, and get rid of hot spots.
it's just heat building up. with temperatures ive heard of i could see no fan. hot temperatures.

my suzuki FA50 doesnt have a fan either, but the motor is completly exposed to the outside air. our hondas are wrapped in plastics so could this be the reason for the fan? and since the honda motors were designed to need the fan and not running one with cause catastrophic failure.
