Need help...Broken Aluminum Fanblade?
My bike has the muzzy(I assume) six-blade fan on it and one of the blades just straight broke off the other day while sitting in traffic.

Should I put a new aluminum blade back on it or go with stock???

Ideas and thoughts please!

go with the aluminium fan. it has more blades with should in theory move more air! but i wouldn't ry to weld the blade back on. it will warp and fatigue the blade and with the rpms it will break again.

No I had no intension of welding it back.

Just wondering if I should but another aluminum or go all out with an aftermarket setup.
