Hmm, how's this for an idea, have bypass switch that turns on a
STDP relay that turns on the fan backwards, thus pushing air out
the front of the rad, thus sucking cooler air around the legs?

Geek factor one, only allow the relay to go on if speed <=10mph
(or abitrary speed for that matter)

Geek factor two, only allow the relay to turn on if the air leaveing
the fairing holes is greater than say 90 degF.
