That doesn;t matter.....


So, is your bike a watercooled minimoto? If so, it should have a water pump and radiator, otherwise it would defeat the purpose of having a w/c bike if you have no radiator as, as soon as the water heats up, it will not be able to cool.

And air cooled minimoto's do not have radiator as they are cooled by the flow of air through the bike, that's why is has the fins on the barrel as the heat escapes from there into the air.

A water cooled minimoto's barrel has a waterjacket, between the barrel and the waterjacket is where the water flows through, the water takes up the heat and then is pumped into the radiator where the air takes the heat from the radiator.

water cooled bikes has a radieter and air cooled does not if it is a water cooled bike it should have a radieter
