Voyager 1700 Factory Rear Cylinder Cooling Kit
Love my new 2010 Voyager 1700..but boy, does that rear cylinder throw off some heat on warm days. Want to know anyone's opinion on the $400 Kawasaki cooling kit. Specifically, item states it RECOMENDS it be installed by a dealer. 1.) is dealer install really needed, or can your average shade-tree mechanic ( meaning me) do it? 2.) has anyone here installed it? 3.) Does it work, regardless of who installs it? 4.) Is it worth it?

On my 09, I had the dealer install the KAMS kit in 2012 after I looked at the directions and realized I wasn't techie enough to do it. It definitely shifts the heat away from you and is worth it to me.

[video][/video]Thanks Joe. I kinda figured it was worth the money. Since I got a good deal on the bike, figure I'll spend the $400 to improve it. Just curious, what did you pay dealer to install?
