1. A cooling system for use with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) having a CVT housing and a belt, comprising:
a variable speed motor;
a fan blade coupled to the variable speed motor;
a temperature sensor;
a microprocessor controller coupled to the variable speed motor and coupled to the temperature sensor; and
a housing retaining the variable speed motor and the fan blade within the housing,
wherein the microprocessor is coupled to the housing, and wherein the housing is configured to couple to the CVT housing to provide additional cooling air to the belt.
