cooling fan is a good idea. NC31 is a very compact piece of kit, and I don't suppose there is a lot of room under the seat or much airflow.
Whilst on hol in Cornwall the 400s reg/rec failed cooking the battery and blowing several bulbs luckily with only one day to go before we returned home. Not wanting to pay the thick end of £200 for another i opted for a no doubt Chinese lookee likee. This gets quite hot. Now I would expect it to get warm but no idea as to how warm, never having had reason to touch the original one when in operation. So for a couple of quid i have put a fan on it and it now works much cooler which i would think can only be a good thing. (Attachment Link)

(Attachment Link) I like it great lateral thinking- where did you source the fan is it a PC unit?
Where is the air intake?
