Maybe it is, or maybe its not aircooled.

But that 126 will go like the clappers with a Yamaha R1 motor in it.

:mrgreen: Yeah I know... that name has stuck.
HR there is a lot of people doing engine conversions on them... mostly punto or uno engines.
I want to keep the aircooled engine in. Gearboxes are very fragile so if you do a swap you need to think of that too.

There's quite a few 126 snowploughs going around in Poland.
